As a business, we have a responsibility to support the local community. Our community engagement focuses on three key areas - youth, charity and employment.
Grant UK’s head offices have always been based in Wiltshire and over the years, we have proudly sponsored local sports and grassroots clubs supporting the younger members of the community. Read more about our work with local grassroots sports clubs here:
Each of these clubs are often run by volunteers who want to support the development of children by providing them with access to sports club training facilities and much more.
Providing financial support to organisations that are helping the next generation is central to Grant UK’s engagement in the local community.
In our capacity as the Official Grassroots and Sustainability Partner of Bath Rugby Club between 2023-2025, we worked with this local premiership rugby club to deliver a Community Sustainability Programme to local primary schools. Between Spring 2024 and Summer 2025, our Kick the Carbon programme with Bath Rugby was delivered to schoolchildren at primary schools based in Wiltshire, Bath and the surrounding area. Combining classroom-based activities with rugby activities, this community initiative aimed to raise awareness about sustainability amongst over 2,000 schoolchildren visited, educating them about the changes we can all make to reduce our impact on the environment.
Our Kick the Carbon programme with local schools was Highly Commended at the Energy Saving Awards 2024 and 2025 for Energy Awareness Campaign of the Year. The initiative was also a Finalist at The Business Exchange Awards 2025 and at The Energy Awards 2026 for Campaign of the Year.

Another way that we support the local community is by fundraising for charities which are nominated and selected by employees. The Wiltshire & Bath Air Ambulance is our current charity who we started to support in 2019. To date, Grant UK has donated £85,000 to this local charity and we are continuing to support the Wiltshire & Bath Air Ambulance throughout 2026.
Wiltshire & Bath Air Ambulance is a local charity based in Melksham, whose essential work and service could be needed by any one of us at some point in our lives. Through a range of off-site events and face to face fundraisers, the Grant Team have reached wonderful fundraising totals over the years – to read more, please follow the links below:
