Working with the Community

We are eager to work with local community groups that champion STEM subjects or careers and support projects that manage and reduce energy consumption in our local communities. 

Community Engagement

For over 10 years we have funded projects in our local community, supporting charities and community groups. 

In 2024, we have awarded funding to:

The Joshua Tree: Supporting families dealing with childhood cancer.

Let's Farm: Funding a poly tunnel to help young adults with learning disabilities gain employability skills.

Each Storengy UK employee has a paid volunteering day, and we proudly participate in these community efforts. In 2023 40% of employees used their volunteering day and by June 2024 15% have volunteered. We decided to allocate funding for some local initiatives that we hope went a small way in making a big difference.

Helping the community go green!

In line with our commitment and strategy to help local business & communities to a low carbon economy, we will continue to look at ways we can support projects such as ones focusing on energy efficiency improvements that residents can implement in their own homes.

Example of our funding is Byley Village Hall, Storengy UK supplied funding for Solar PV panels and the Village Hall funded a Telsar battery to store the energy generated. 

School out reach projects 

The team are dedicated to supporting the next generation, into STEM careers and we have a number of specialist personnel in our team who are willing to share their expertise with local young people, from primary school to recent graduates, in real life scenarios, encouraging creativity and innovation. We often take part in careers fairs, recent ones have included, The County High School, Leftwich, Alderley Edge Girls School, and TTE training college. We are proud supporters and members of The Pledge Cheshire and Warrington and work with them to make our interaction with schools as meaningful as possible supporting with CV writing, mock interviews and work experience.

We were thrilled to welcome students from years 9 and 10 from The County High School Leftwich to celebrate International Women's Day 2024. The teams from Operations, Engineering and maintenance presented on what we do at Storengy UK and how their roles support the business. We were keen to showcase the many roles that support the successful running of the Stublach site and the career paths that can lead to the STEM related areas.

Below images show our Site Service Engineer Kristiena presenting to the students and our Process Operations team leader conducting a tour of the operations room.

Some members of the team took part in a film for the local council Cheshire West and Chester. The film included companies from the local area who are supporting the community in Cheshire, through initiatives including:

• Offering Apprentices
• Supporting the local living wage
• Combating climate change with local projects

We showcased what Storengy UK are doing in these areas and why.
