GRAHAM Commits To The Buy And Social Pledge

GRAHAM has committed to the Buy Social Pledge, a new initiative aimed at leveraging business spending to create meaningful social and environmental benefits for communities across Scotland.

The Buy Social Pledge, run by Social Enterprise Scotland, brings together corporate businesses, SMEs, academic institutions, and public sector bodies looking to make a commitment to bring social enterprises into their supply chains. It allows businesses and institutions to harness their purchasing power for good and contribute to positive social change in local communities.

Organisations who sign up to the Buy Social Pledge commit to fostering inclusive economic growth. The pledge signifies a transformative approach to doing business, where businesses become catalysts for positive change in communities.

By joining the pledge, GRAHAM aims to increase its engagement with social enterprises, committing to purchasing goods and services that contribute to wider social goals such as tackling inequality, supporting the environment, and empowering local communities.

In Aberdeen, GRAHAM has recently worked with local social enterprise Charlie House to provide a café on their site for the workforce, which not only employs local people but generates funds to help local families supported by Charlie House.
