Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) lies at the heart of what Grass Routes believes in and we are not alone. A recent survey by the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development found that nearly 90% of respondents selected the company they wanted to work for by the social values that company adhered to.

Grass Routes has a long track record of working in and for the community. We have worked with the Probation service, the Social Services, the Police, Operation Raleigh, Barnardo’s, Bristol Children’s Hospital, RYLA Rotary Youth Leadership Awards as well as with many schools from disadvantaged inner city areas.

The Synergy Programme

Synergy has been developed in collaboration with the Bristol Children's Help Society, a charity which has helped disadvantaged children for over a 100 years. The objective is to design and deliver a programme of activities to 35 disadvantaged 8-10 year old children, so good that the children will never forget it.

The venue is Barton Camp near Winscombe in the Mendip Hills and the training is residential, taking place over seven days. The result is a dramatic learning achievement that provides participants with excellent management and leadership skills.

We have achieved great success with all levels of management, from graduate recruits to senior managers. Grass Routes will design your programme to meet your needs.

"Barton camp provides for the practical study of organisational structure and management. As well as creating their own organisation, the participants have to manage the children, the camp, the programme and themselves. The experience will contribute to their personal development and effectiveness at work, as well as to their life skills. They will also have fun and feel good about their contribution to the community"

"Synergy is frontline management training at its most extreme, providing learning that surpasses theoretical understanding that is deeply embedded."
