What is MLP Doing for the Community?

You may have heard about our new Charity of the Year, and we wanted to tell you a little bit more about some of our aims and objectives within the community for this exciting year ahead.

First off, we are aiming on offsetting our carbon footprint. We are aware of the dangers of global warming and we would like to do our part in reducing that risk. We have made small changes in and around our offices, which will lead to a much larger positive impact. We have changed all paper used in the office to eco-friendly and are reducing the amount we use and print. We have hybrid working in place for our colleagues, which helps us reduce the carbon emissions from their cars driving to and from the office and we are enforcing the switch off, of unnecessary lights and electrical items in our office to reduce the amount of wasted energy.

For those who visit Altrincham you may have also noticed we now have a planter on Stamford New Road outside of Altrincham Interchange and opposite Pure Gym, which too is, helping us offset our carbon footprint and make a change.

Next, we are aiming to give one company with a local community focus or interest, free legal assistance in the areas of commercial, corporate or employment law and will select a specialist to work closely with you dependant on your requirements.

We will announce whom we have chosen the first week of June 2022. If you would like to be considered please call us on 0161 926 9969 or alternatively email us on ameliad@mlplaw.co.uk.

Finally, we have officially picked our charity of the year who are close within our community. This year we gave our colleagues the chance to decide. During the year we will be doing events to raise money for our charity and for those that have visited our offices for meetings, they may have noticed our colleagues in casual attire on a Thursday, and this is just one of the ways we are aiming to raise money for our charity. We are asking our colleagues to dress down on a Thursday and bring a donation in for us to put towards our charity of the year.

We are also encouraging our colleagues to raise money for our charities by running the Manchester Marathon in April 2023 whether this be a relay or full marathon.

In MLP, we enjoy seeing the positive affect we have on the environment and our communities by making changes and helping those around us. This is just a small percentage of what our team has planned for this year ahead and they are working hard to ensure we are always doing the right thing.

We would love to hear your suggestions on what changes and help MLP can have to our community and the environment. If you happen to have any, email us on katied@mlplaw.co.uk or alternatively call 0161 926 9969.
