Support for the 2010 KEiBA Awards

GSE Group is proud to be sponsoring the Kent Excellence in Business Awards for the second consecutive year and honoured to be responsible once again, for judging and presenting the ‘Business Commitment to the Community’ Award.

These prestigious awards are staged by Kent County Council and the KM Group to recognise and reward excellence in Kent’s businesses, offering companies of all sizes the chance to showcase their merits. The judging process includes a meeting with each finalist, to assess evidence of their commitment and witness the satisfaction gained by those involved in community initiatives.

For the GSE Group directors that form the judging panel for the award, the opportunity to assess such an important aspect of corporate activity represents not only the chance to consider how organisations commit to their local environment, but has also driven them to introduce their own dedicated CSR policy and encourage more corporate social responsibility across the GSE Group.
