Our Communities

Meaningful impact where it matters

Making a difference where we can

As one of the UK’s largest personal lines insurers with offices across the country, we have the power to make a difference in the areas in which we operate. We work together to make a positive impact on our local communities and choose to support charities close to our colleagues’ hearts – from fundraising to supporting education.

Our charity work

Every year, we ask our teams which charity they would like us to support, with Air Ambulances UK (AAUK) our current choice. AAUK is the national organisation championing the vital work of the UK’s 21 regional air ambulance charities. It’s funded entirely by donations, and our efforts support the five air ambulance charities near each of our UK offices, in addition to the other regional air ambulance charities across the UK

Supporting local education

We partner with local colleges and universities on schemes such as apprenticeships. This enables us to easily engage with them when we have apprenticeship programmes available, as well as participate in various career events.

We offer a range of entry point apprenticeship schemes, one of which is our IT degree apprenticeship programme. Presented to college students as an alternative to going to university, it’s a great opportunity to work whilst attaining a fully-funded degree from a Russell Group University. A four-year programme, the degree is a blended approach of valued business work and structured distance learning once a week to embed the knowledge, skills, and behaviours needed.

Volunteering in the community

Our volunteering policy allows our people to take time away from their day-to-day roles to support good causes in their communities. Some of the ways our community-spirited employees spent their time included beach cleans, helping local Pride celebrations, and marshalling at fundraising events for AAUK. Looking ahead, we hope to increase the number of volunteering days carried out by our employees compared to 2022.

Supporting Ukraine

Shocked and saddened by the continuing events unfolding in Ukraine, our employees have stepped up to support those affected by the war. We set up collection points at our UK offices, so our people could donate much-needed provisions and medical supplies. In addition, Ageas donated to the British Red Cross Ukraine Crisis Appeal, and match-funded donations made by colleagues through our payroll giving scheme.
