Community Support


Canon (UK) Ltd is perceived by many charitable organisations to be a major, successful company with a willingness and ability to support worthy causes or events in the community within which it operates, and indeed it is.

Community Action Review Enterprise (CARE)

In the course of an average week, Canon U.K. receives around 50-60 proposals from charitable or community organisations, with requests ranging from small to substantial donations or product requests.

These include not only humanitarian charities for the disadvantaged, but also organisations or individuals within education, employment/business enterprise development, the arts and environmental programmes.   As a result in 1990, Canon identified the need to have a clear set of guidelines and establish a working Committee known as the CARE scheme.  CARE is divided into six categories: 

  1. Business & Community - aimed at building relationships with local businesses thus encouraging job creation and community interaction.
  2. Education - designed at supporting schools, colleges and extra curricular activity.
  3. Arts & Culture - benefits creative events and programmes which encourage community interest and participation.
  4. Humanitarian - designed to provide assistance and support for a variety of health related causes.
  5. Environment - aimed at supporting community and environmental organisations to help improve their surroundings.
  6. Employee Matching - monies will be matched for Canon employees taking part in charitable fundraising events.

CARE COMMITTEE
The Committee consists of members with specific individual responsibilities who meet on a quarterly basis. 

Chairperson - Andy Vickers, Managing Director & CBS Country Director Canon UK & Ireland
Education - Lisa Attfield
Humanitarian - Lisa Attfield
Business & Community - Lisa Attfield
