Community-minded colleagues at Amazon Filters have ‘given back’ nearly 90 days of voluntary service to good causes in 2024.
More than 60 team members devoted time to initiatives such as school grounds improvements, sorting through bags of donated clothes at a hospice charity and clearing leaves from the grounds of a family respite centre.
Community action days at our firm are largely held in association with the corporate volunteering charity CMP, the Community Matters Partnership.
Each member of our staff is allowed two days’ paid leave for volunteering with CMP or doing other charitable work.
Ruth Pappadakis, Head of People and Culture, said: “We partner with CMP on behalf of the local community in a variety of ways.
“On our 2024 programme of community action, we have reached an amazing 87.5 days of service compared to 55.25 last year.
“This massive increase, a rise of 58%, has come about because 62 people came forward as against 33 last year. The numbers are ramping up.
“We’re thrilled that more colleagues are embracing the spirit of giving something back to the communities where we live and work.”

Amazon Filters supports pupils at local secondary schools Kings International and Tomlinscote.

At separate community initiatives with two secondary schools, several of our managers role-played job interviewers while other colleagues welcomed students for a tour of our Camberley production centre.

In support of a ‘big interview’ day for students at Kings International College, Camberley, two managers visited the school and acted as prospective employers to quiz applicants for various roles.

Separately, and as part of our support for the Community Matters Partnership (CMP), we hosted a visit by eleven pupils from Tomlinscote School in Camberley.
The Year 10 group, aged 13 or 14, donned hi-viz jackets and safety footwear for a behind-the-scenes tour of our manufacturing facility which is just two miles from the school.
The visit was one of a series of workplace visits The Community Matters Partnership has organised for pupils this year under its initiative Raise, standing for Raise Aspirations Inspire Support Encourage.
The aim is to share experiences of different vocational opportunities to boost awareness among young learners and encourage confidence and motivation about entering the world of work.
