Responsibility
SFL believe in giving to worthy causes both within our local community and the wider world, through direct financial support, the loan of equipment or special discounts.
SFL run payroll giving for its employees to encourage them to support charities close to their hearts in addition to the support SFL provides to charities listed here. SFL commit a percentage of our profits each year to charitable organisations, but we also strive to offer support in other ways where we can.
Key charitable organisations that we support are selected annually from nominations made by any SFL team member. We aim to offer financial long term support to a small selection of charities, below are the ones we are currently supporting.
We also provide one off donations to charities as and when we are approached or a team member makes a request – for example in 2014 we provided a local charity with a one off donation towards the purchase of a first response vehicle to attend emergencies in the local area. In 2015 we are following this up with a financial plan to support them long term with keeping this vehicle on the road.
To support and encourage charities with their own fundraising efforts we also offer matched funding that they have already secured.
