THE COMMITMENT towards the community shown by Friends Provident International was recognised with a major award at the Isle of Man Newspapers Awards for Excellence at the Villa Marina on Thursday night.
Friends Provident International is one of the Isle of Man’s biggest employers and has a long established record of being involved in the community., including generous donations to various good causes.
The company has also developed a well organised CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) programme which increasingly recognises environmental responsibility, engaging as often as possible with the local community.
A key aspect has been the fostering of partnerships between the company’s staff and the community.
The other nominees in this category were Manx Gateway Drama Group, represented by Olga Gray, and Age Concern, represented by Penny Creighton.
The award, sponsored by IOMA Group, was presented by Nigel Wood.
