Volunteering and Community

Worcester Bosch celebrated their 60th anniversary in 2022 and as part of their anniversary year, associates volunteered their time with many charities including St Richards Hospice, Worcester Breast Haven, Hartlebury Castle and Grounds.

In May 2022, some of our interns over at Bosch Rexroth UK spent the day at The Churn Project in Cirencester. The project supports 1,900 people every year and aims to reduce social isolation and improve well-being. The interns volunteered for a ‘Men’s Shed Day’ where they painted a Scout Hut. The Scout Hut is used by The Churn Project as a place where like-minded people can come together to share skills and any worries.

On 31st May 2019, 20 Bosch associates from the Original Equipment (OE) division gathered to volunteer at a local charity. Lindengate is a mental health charity that offers specialised gardening activities to help those with mental health needs in their continuing recovery. The volunteer group spent the day clearing wild growth and created flower beds. The team worked very hard and within a few hours all weeds, wild plants and nettles had been cut down and dug out.

In October 2017, Bosch associates from the UK Legal, Controlling and Communications teams spent the day volunteering at the Chiltern Open Air Museum. The museum was founded in 1976 with the purpose of re-erecting disused, historical buildings, so that they can be preserved and enjoyed by future generations. The museum hosts many school trips, providing an interactive educational environment for children to learn about a variety of subjects, including science, history and literacy.

The volunteer group provided support on various projects including making decorations for the annual Halloween event and clearing an overgrown woodland area.
