Commitment and Sustainability

Communities

Bayer has a strong history of corporate and societal engagement across the UK and Ireland. Our commitment is evident through support of numerous social responsibility programmes, often in partnership with other organisations.
 

Berkshire Community Foundation

n

The Berkshire Community Foundation provides advice, distributes grants and raises the profile of local charities and community groups addressing identified need across Berkshire.


Bayer works with the Foundation to use their local knowledge to connect our staff to the groups and communities they want to help, primarily through volunteering opportunities and, as a Business Philanthropy Club member, making sure our donations are effective and bring the greatest benefit to those most in need.

 

Education Business Partnership West Berkshire – Cultivate

n

Each year Bayer sponsors the Cultivate young entrepreneurs’ programme, which requires mentoring of a young person or group over a period of weeks to help them develop their business plans.


To date Bayer has produced up to five mentors per programme and will continue with this rewarding programme.
