Donations for Middleton Central Foodbank?

The UK’s food poverty rate is among the highest in Europe. According to the latest government statistics, 4.2 million people (6 per cent) were living in food poverty from 2020 to 2021, including 9 per cent of all children.

The current cost-of-living crisis is only making the situation worse.

Last week, our colleagues took food donations to Middleton Central Foodbank, close to our HQ, where they were also given a guided tour around their facilities.

Donating food is a great way to help those in need and can have a positive impact on the local community.

Vita employees care not only for each other but also strive to enhance our relationship with the local communities in which we operate. The Vita Group is committed to doing what we can to help those in need.

Thank you to everyone who donated!

Better You, Better Life - Most Miles March competition

This month, as part of Better You, Better Life (BYBL), site teams competed to see who could walk or run the furthest through the month of March.

Walking is an easy and free way to get active. You can burn calories, become healthier, build stamina and make your heart healthier, all by taking a walk! It is a great way to get out and enjoy the fresh air as well.

Some of the teams went a step further and organised trips to get active. Our colleagues from Dukinfield trekked up Mount Snowden, whilst our Middleton site went on a 6-mile walk along the canal close to the site. However, even with these extra miles, no one could beat the Vita Liquid Polymers team in Wythenshawe. VLP topped the Most Miles March leaderboard for the second year in a row. Congratulations!

Fire safety exercises

For the last three weeks, colleagues from our site in Hungary participated in fire safety training to make sure they knew what to do in case of a fire. The training included identifying escape routes, practising evacuation procedures, and testing smoke detectors and fire alarms. Regular fire drills can help to prevent panic and ensure that everyone is prepared in case of an emergency.

and finally...

We would like to take this opportunity and wish you a Happy Easter!
