Sponsorship & community
We believe that businesses have a role to play in making communities better and we have an extensive programme of sponsorship and charity work. We sponsor Middlesex County Cricket Club (MCCC) because the sport encapsulates the blend of integrity and performance that we strive to achieve ourselves.
But we also sponsor a host of other local sports clubs that give people the opportunity to come together as a community. These range from the GP Sprint Athletics Club in Manchester to Baillielands Football Club under-8s in Scotland and Guernsey Hockey Club.
We have always had a charitable culture and this manifests itself through the Brooks Macdonald Foundation. Since its formation in 2011, the foundation has helped more than 100 charities across the country.
