First Event Corporate Social Responsibility
Putting Purpose Into Practice
At First Event, corporate social responsibility isn’t a box-ticking exercise, it’s a core part of how we do business. We believe that being environmentally and socially responsible isn’t just good business sense; it’s essential.
Our CSR initiatives are designed to make a real impact, from supporting local communities and national charities to reducing our environmental footprint and building a more sustainable future. We continuously look for ways to improve how we operate, support those around us, and use events as a force for good.
Education & Youth Engagement
We’re passionate about inspiring the next generation of event professionals. Our long-standing work experience programme connects young people with exciting opportunities in the events industry. By partnering with local schools and colleges, we help students gain real insight into career paths and develop valuable skills for the future.
Supporting Local Communities
Community is at the heart of what we do. From sponsoring local events and grassroots sports teams to hosting fundraisers for important causes, we’re committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work.
Partnering with National Charities
Every year, we donate our time, resources, and skills to support national charities. We’re proud to have worked with organisations such as the Rainy Day Trust and the Pavestone Rally, helping them raise awareness and drive fundraising through impactful event support.
Sustainable & Responsible Event Management
We work with clients to embed CSR into their event strategy, creating purpose-driven experiences that make a positive impact. Whether it’s donating unused event materials, arranging charity-based teambuilding activities, or coordinating leftover catering to be collected by homeless shelters, we help ensure your event leaves a meaningful legacy.
