Osborne property services up for award
Osborne Property Services has been shortlisted for the Slough Business Support of the Year award.
Slough Borough Council’s repairs, maintenance and investment service partner, Osborne, has been nominated as part of the Slough Voluntary Sector Awards.
The Slough Voluntary Sector Awards celebrate the achievements of local voluntary and community groups in the town. These groups make a huge contribution to the community and are an important part to what the government terms civil society.
The Slough Business Support of the Year award recognises an individual or team which has made an outstanding contribution to their community through business mentoring, philanthropic contributions or volunteering business support to improve the lives of the people of Slough.
The Osborne submission included details about working with charities in the borough as well as offering work experience and placements for students.
The submission said: “We have worked hard to design a tailored community investment plan as part of our legacy commitments which incorporates a variety of initiatives that see social value benefits. Creating opportunities for people to gain work experience, build confidence and feel proud of where they live are all outcomes that we aspire to. Our dedicated community investment manager is committed to delivering the community investment plan to ensure maximum impact.
“We have and will continue to develop relationships, supporting local charities and organisations including Hestia where we have launched a year long campaign titled ‘Gift, With Love’.
“We were also thrilled to work with SCVS to help co-ordinate the well needed face-lift of HOME on the High Street. This worthy project brought local organisations and volunteers together which gave it a clean, fresh and vibrant feel. Over two days, we managed to cover 3965sq ft of walls and woodwork, making the space look renewed.”
The winners will be presented with the award at a celebration dinner on Friday 15 November at Heathrow and Windsor Marriott, Ditton Road, Langley.
All those shortlisted will receive a certificate on the night and the overall winners in each category will receive a trophy.
Cllr Mohammed Nazir, cabinet member for housing and community safety, said: “Excellent work like this shows how partnerships are vital not only to provide services but to go above and beyond and leave a lasting legacy in the community.
“I hope Osborne do well at the awards ceremony – however, their work in the community will be there as a prize whether they win or not.”
