Charity Work
At Robert Glass, we never forget where we came from. From humble origins, we are now proud to work right across the north – west. It’s also just as important for us to remember where we are right now. We are proud to be a part of every community in which we play a part.
It’s important to our ethos to share our success with those less fortunate. We are incredibly proud to work with a number of charities based right here in the north – west, all of which are local to our stores and play an important role in the lives of both our teams and our customers.
Our links to these 3 fantastic charities goes beyond just donating money. We regularly hold open days to support the work they do. Recently, at our Shaw practice, we were delighted to welcome British actor John Henshaw, a Kershaw’s ambassador, best known for his role as Ken Dixon the landlord in Early Doors.
