Social Responsibility

We are committed to making a positive and lasting contribution to our local community.

Our Commitment to Giving

Making a difference stands not only in our work ethic and values but extends to our local communities too.

Social Responsibility

At Instarmac, we know that its our people with their unique backgrounds, skills, experience and knowledge who drive our ongoing success. That’s why we strive to attract, develop and retain a highly talented workforce and provide an inclusive and innovative workplace, providing opportunities for all employees to thrive.

Supporting local charities and sports clubs is always something we have prided ourselves on and have sponsored a number of local athletes over the years. Our most recent partnerships include Birmingham BMX – a community based sports club with a vision to encourage more people to participate in the Olympic sport of BMX – and Help Harry Help Others cancer charity. We also sponsored and volunteered at the Birmingham Walkathon as part of this commitment to this charity.

As a business, we also like to be proactive with fundraising and we support a variety of initiatives throughout the year.

Our Commitment to Giving

We know that a ‘little kindness can go a long way’ and this is true. As a company who strives to be an employer of choice, we understand that our team want a greater sense of wellbeing, and to be part of something that matters, and so we actively aim to provide opportunities to contribute beyond daily work activities. Giving something back is at our heart, we never forget our humble beginnings. Making a difference stands not only in our work ethic and values but extends to our local communities too.

We are always looking to explore new ways in which we can help support other charities within our local area that can often get overlooked for funding. It’s a great way for our team to get to know the wider community and strengthen social connections.

Each year we support a primary list of charities including:

  • Macmillan Cancer Support
  • Red Nose Day
  • Children in Need

We raise money through:

  • Dress down days
  • Cake sales and tombolas
  • Red noses and badges
  • Staff fundraising initiatives
  • Donation appeals for Christmas

The Birmingham Walkathon is back and we were delighted, and proud, to be one of the sponsors. We also donated bottled water, with our very own Sarah and Lynne heading over to King’s Heath Park to hand it out to the walkers.
