• Audit high density areas and identify key schools in our communities to work with
• Engage with the schools and work with them to identify what the pressure points are for low income families who need the most help, agreeing ways we can help as a responsible business with a vested interest in the local community 
• Identify suitable volunteering opportunities for employees, utilising practical skill sets (e.g. money advice, reading/writing)
