Bakers and razors for the Stroke Association

Mary Harris, pictured on the right, works at Restore Records Management and has been instrumental in helping raise a total of £960 for the Stroke Association. Here she explains why.

“Back in July 2016, my wife, Coral, had a stroke and, although she is doing better now, we went through a really tough time. I wanted to raise funds for the Stroke Association who were there when we needed them, so set to work baking cakes for cake sales at work. This was something Coral could help me with as, even though it was slow and painstaking, she could decorate them and she loved every minute of it.

Doing the cake sale and a ‘dress down’ day at work opened my eyes to the fact that colleagues were also living with family members who had suffered a stroke. So many were supportive and generous with their time and donations – including Brad who shaved all his hair off (his mum and dad are really proud!).
Thank you, everyone.”

Growing Talent

Supported within the Group by Restore Harrow Green, the Growing Talent scheme is an external business-led initiative that has been running for four years. It’s an inclusive, free facility open to anyone over 18, from any social or academic background, that brings the unemployed and employers with permanent roles together on a maximum 12-week programme to help secure new talent confidently. During those four years, Restore Harrow Green has employed 35 people.

Executive Assistant, Sharon Sales, explains:
“Growing Talent is a fantastic programme and has worked very well for us. We’re pleased to be supporting people who are keen to work and who just need an opportunity to show what they can do. We have given them a chance and they have repaid us with their hard work and commitment. Through the programme we have gained new members of the team who are capable and motivated and it’s great to see their confidence and abilities increasing. They are an asset to our company and I am extremely proud of what they have achieved.”

We are committed to equality and fairness for all employees, and do not discriminate on the grounds of gender, gender reassignment, marital status, race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, religion or age.

As our Group increases in scale, we are able to offer greater stability, development and career opportunities to our people, but without losing the flexibility to treat people as individuals.

Health and Safety

Health and safety is overseen by our Risk Committee and Group Board and we strive continually to improve our performance.

In the past year we implemented a new accident reporting system across our Restore Records Management business, which has helped improve our training methods.

We are proud of our low incident rate and always seek ways to improve our training and reporting, as employee welfare is at the heart of our business.
