We proactively look to offer employment and training opportunities to local people and support initiatives to provide employment opportunities to young and disadvantaged people.
We aim to improve the overall health of the Borough by investing in the development of our team, teaching life skills, such as cooking, through after school classes and delivering workshops to promote good health across the community.
BD Group signs up for Winter Holiday Activity and Food Program 23-24
BD Group once again joined forces with the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham (LBBD) on the Winter Holiday Activity and Food Program (HAF), a government initiative aimed at supporting children and families across the Borough during the holiday period.
The collaboration underscores a shared commitment to the well-being of the local community, combining resources and expertise to make a meaningful impact on the lives of children and their families.
The Program focuses on providing children with activities over the holiday period and promotes healthy eating by offering fresh fruits, vegetables, and hot meals. It is also designed to keep children safe and prevent social isolation.
The partnership reflects BD Group’s dedication to supporting the communities in which it operates, ensuring that no one is left behind.
