It was double delight for our Social Impact team as their hard work and dedication was recognised at two glitzy awards ceremonies in London on Tuesday (2 July) night.<\/strong><\/p>\n Presented just hours apart, the first acknowledgement was from charity Chapter One at its Partner, Volunteer and School Recognition Event.<\/p>\n Receiving the prestigious Special Recognition Award, PPP was awarded the honour for our employees\u2019 and supply chain\u2019s outstanding commitment to helping primary school age children in our local community develop their reading skills. This would not be possible without the efforts of a growing army of volunteers from PPP, Sellafield Ltd and the supply chain<\/span> who have provided over 550 hours to Cumbrian pupils on a one-to-one basis every week to provide reading support at the time when they need it the most.<\/p>\n Next was the New Civil Engineer Awards (NCE), where PPP won the Environmental, Social and Governance Leader accolade.<\/p>\n This award recognised those who have demonstrated an innovative approach to environmental and sustainability issues and improving social value.<\/p>\n As part of our application, PPP successfully demonstrated its credentials by focusing on our intern programme and the incredible level of volunteering that takes place across the partnership.<\/p>\n The judges said our entry \u2018demonstrated a clear, place-based approach to transforming environmental and social outcomes for a local community, underpinned by a series of robust roadmaps and frameworks that ensured this is strategically prioritised through governance\u2019.<\/p>\n In particular, the judges were impressed by the efforts to publish a strong, quantitative assessment framework for measuring social impact transformation, in what they said \u2018bucked the wider industry trend of claiming that these benefits are hard to measure\u2019.<\/p>\n Peter Musk, Head of Change and Transformation, and Cat McChesney-Davies, Social Impact Lead, represented PPP in London.<\/p>\n Peter said:<\/p>\n \u201cWe are deeply honoured to receive these awards and they\u2019re incredible recognition for our team, including our supply chain. At PPP, we truly believe in giving back to the community we serve and in supporting future generations.<\/p>\n \u201cTo be recognised by Chapter One shows our teams\u2019 dedication to such an amazing initiative and reflects our values and commitment to making a positive impact on the next generation. We are extremely proud to contribute to Chapter One and the educational journey of local schoolchildren and look to do even more in the coming years.<\/p>\n \u201cTo win the NCE award for our environmental and sustainability work was equally as proud a moment for us because a huge amount\u00a0of work has been put into developing our strategy in line with Sellafield Social Impact Multiplied (SiX) and our approach to sustainability.<\/p>\n \u201cThere was seriously strong competition and we\u2019ve demonstrated our position as leading the way.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was double delight for our Social Impact team as their hard work and dedication was recognised at two glitzy awards ceremonies in London on Tuesday (2 July) night.
