Throughout its sixty year business history the company has developed a reputation for its charitable activities and generous support for individuals and associations.
The Richardson Brothers' Foundation was established in August 2006. The Foundation is a completely separate entity to Richardson Capital, although it is funded by the Richardson family.
The focus of the Richardson Brothers' Foundation is to promote, support and give assistance to charitable activity that helps to improve circumstances of those less fortunate in our society. Particular emphasis is given, though not exclusively to education, social projects and disabled service personnel. A principal element is to support others who act charitably giving freely of their own time and resources.
In particular the trustees have generally chosen to support groups, associations and individuals within the broad umbrella of “disadvantage and self help”, particularly within the commercial footprint of the Organisation’s historic, current and future activities.
Due to the sensitive nature of the foundations work there is no disclosure of issues supported or of the charitable donations provided.
