Here at Cleenol Group Ltd, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our newest initiative, "Cleenol in the Community" Community Interest Company (CIC). With a rich history of community engagement and innovation spanning 75 years, we are embarking on an exciting new chapter focused on making a positive impact right here in our local area.
Led by Sam Greaves, the fourth-generation Managing Director of Cleenol, this initiative holds special significance for us. It represents an opportunity to give back to the community that has been an integral part of our journey. Sam Greaves, personally, is deeply committed to leading Cleenol in this endeavour and is excited to see the positive change we can bring to people's lives.
Our official launch event for Cleenol in the Community was held on Friday, March 22, 2024, at our office in Beaumont Road, Banbury. We were honoured to welcome esteemed guests, including MP Victoria Prentis, local charities, and dignitaries, to join us as we marked this important milestone. Get Radio were also in attendance, capturing the essence of the occasion through insightful interviews.
At the core of Cleenol in the Community lies a deep sense of purpose – to empower disadvantaged individuals by providing employment opportunities and work experience, and to contribute essential funding for community projects. As a not-for-profit organisation, we are committed to reinvesting all profits back into the community, fostering unity and resilience among its residents.
Our longstanding partnerships with organisations like Katharine House Hospice and Chipping Norton Theatre have demonstrated the power of collective action and community support. Through Cleenol in the Community, we are taking our commitment to the next level, addressing pressing needs and championing a safer, healthier future for all.
Looking ahead, we envision a future where every member of our community has access to essential services and opportunities for growth. From creating job opportunities for those facing employment barriers to embracing environmentally friendly practices like using electric vehicles for deliveries, Cleenol remains steadfast in its commitment to driving positive change.
As a family-run, independent business, we understand the importance of giving back to our roots. With Cleenol in the Community, we hope to inspire other businesses to join us on this mission of compassion, collaboration, and community building. Together, we can make a real difference and pave the way for a brighter future.
