Shared wealth

BSR Community Fund

We return 1% of every client invoice to local community charities, projects, and social enterprises.

1%

of every paid client invoice

A fixed share, not a campaign

The Community Fund is how BSR Group creates shared wealth and meets its social responsibilities. When an invoice is paid, 1% is allocated automatically. Clients help decide where it lands. Local organisations receive the money.

Why the fund exists

Infrastructure and energy work only succeeds when the places around it succeed too. Workforces are local. Suppliers are local. Charities, clubs, training schemes, and social enterprises are the fabric that holds those communities together.

So we made giving back structural. A share of commercial activity goes back into the towns and regions where the work is delivered, as a permanent part of how we operate rather than a one-off donation drive.

How it works

Built into the invoices and client portal we already run.

  1. The work is invoiced

    Recruitment, infrastructure, procurement, logistics: projects run as normal. Nothing extra is added to the client bill.

  2. 1% is allocated to the fund

    When the invoice is paid, 1% of the bottom-line amount is credited to that client's Community Fund balance. It is automatic and recorded in the ledger.

  3. Clients help choose where it goes

    Clients vote on curated programmes and redeem credits against local charities, community projects, and social enterprises near where their work is delivered.

  4. Outcomes are recorded

    Each redemption is itemised: what was supported, how much, and when. Clients can export the record for ESG and stakeholder reporting.

Who the fund supports

Local organisations doing practical work in the places we deliver.

Community charities

Food banks, mental-health services, hospices, and welfare charities operating in project regions.

Local projects

Skills bursaries, youth and sport programmes, STEM outreach, and place-based improvements near major sites.

Social enterprises

Organisations that trade for a social purpose: training, employment, and community services that recycle surplus back into the place they serve.

Nominate a cause

Run a charity, community project, or social enterprise near where we work? Tell us about it. Nominations are reviewed with the clients whose invoices fund the next round.

For clients

Your Community Fund balance sits in the client portal alongside the rest of the account: live credits from each paid invoice, programmes to vote on, redemption receipts, and an exportable ledger for ESG reporting.

Nothing is added to your invoice. The 1% comes from BSR Group. The work you already do with us is what funds the next local grant.
