At Total Gas & Power, we share that commitment, and our CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) Committee is where most of that work starts. The committee is a small group of TGP employees who are dedicated to ensuring we meet our charitable commitments: Liz Gregson – Head of HR![better energy](https://live.business.totalenergies.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/better%20energy.png?width=300&name=better%20energy.png) Paul Margetts – Head of Audit & Compliance Darren Holman – Energy Services Manager Marion Driscoll – Office Services Manager Meena Sparkes-Mahi - Senior Business Change Consultant Amy Devlin – Communications Manager  Better Energy School Awards ### What we do We have an annual budget, which we split between supporting our charity partner commitments, and the brilliant fundraising work that you do individually. We also plan TGP’s strategic CSR commitments – those are the large scale projects and partnerships that will have the greatest impact on our communities. In line with the policy of Total Group, our aim is to support charities that work in one or more of these areas: • Forests and climate • Youth education and inclusion • Dialog between cultures and heritage • Safety on roads ![Hindleap 3](https://live.business.totalenergies.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Hindleap%203.jpg?width=1316&name=Hindleap%203.jpg) ### What we did in 2018 2018 was a busy year for all things CSR at TGP. Here are just some of the amazing things we were a part of: • Total Build – we funded a major project at Hindleap Warren, and with the help of one week of your time created an outdoor activity course fit for the thousands of young people whose lives are improved every year by visiting their centre. • Supported TGPers in their fundraising efforts to the tune of over £2300, benefitting a range of charities including British Heart Foundation, Lily Foundation, Alzheimers Society and The Emily Ash Trust. • We sponsored (for the 12th year running) the Better Energy Awards, giving over 250,000 young people the opportunity to design some amazing environmental projects, in partnership with YPTE. • Matched employee fundraising when we took part in the brilliant Macmillan World’s Biggest Coffee Morning…and ate a lot of cake. • Doubled the funds raised by employees for the Renewed Hope Trust where we donned our best festive jumpers for Christmas jumper day. • Supported local charity Voluntary Action Reigate & Banstead by donating towards their Christmas meal for vulnerable residents in the community. ![Capture](https://live.business.totalenergies.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Capture.jpg?width=903&name=Capture.jpg) ### To find out more 2019 looks set to be just as busy, with TGP getting ready to support many local causes.
