Slough Business Support of the Year award win
Osborne Property Services, in partnership with Slough Borough Council, has won Business Support of the Year award.
Slough Borough Council’s repairs, maintenance and investment service partner, Osborne, had been nominated in 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 and Slough Borough Council partnership submission included details about working with charities in the borough as well as offering work experience and placements for students.
Michelle Comley, Osborne Account Director, said: “We were pleased we were shortlisted in the first place and delighted to have won the award.
“Osborne is not only committed to providing a repairs and maintenance service but working in the Slough community to help people now and for their future.
“Our work does not stop with what we have already achieved in the last year as we are going to achieve more in the coming year. There are lots of projects which have already been set up and are in the pipeline to help more Slough residents.”
Kamal Lallian, Slough Borough Council’s neighbourhood contracts & business services manager, said: “This is a great result which benefits Slough people as a result of the council’s partnership with Osborne.”
The award winning submission stated: “We have worked hard together 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 partnership is also focused on providing work opportunities for local people, procuring materials from local suppliers and working with local sub-contractors, keeping spend within the borough.”
The award ceremony was held on November 15.
