Accor Services' managers muck in for charity!

Senior managers from the Accor Services' Group got their hands dirty for Action for Children last month when they swapped their business suits for overalls and wellies to devote their annual management away day to charity. A team of 36 managers got together to transform the Stanlow Abbey Children's Centre.

The centre, which is in one of the most deprived areas of the North West, plays an important role in supporting & developing children and young parents.

Patrick Langlois, managing director, commented, "The management day is a major annual event for teambuilding. This year I considered it important for our managers to take the lead and demonstrate our commitment to CSR. It proved to be successful on all fronts – great teamwork and spirit amongst our team and a real difference made to the community served by the centre".

MyWorkOffers delivers real savings for SMEs

MyWorkOffers, the employee savings online platform developed specifically for small & medium sized businesses, is already delivering real savings for employees since its recent launch.

And Partners – an organisation based in Manchester that employs 30 staff was one of the first organisations to use the service.

Managing Director Andrew Brown-Allan said: "Over half my employees have already started to make savings by purchasing the discounted shopping vouchers and taking advantage of the special offers available online. For practically next to nothing, I've effectively been able to give my staff a pay rise, and in this current climate, that can only be a good thing!"
