Following a break-in and damage to stock at Mesopotamia’s base in Nottingham, VISAV donated 60 selection boxes, individually wrapped by the VISAV team, to be distributed to local families over the Christmas period.

In November 2022 VISAV donated £2,000 of new books to Brookhurst Primary School in Cheshire. The school did not have a sufficient range of genres of reading materials that exposed the children to difference, friendship, prejudice and community. It was imperative that the children had a library comprising a range of diverse titles and subjects so that they are all well equipped to be responsible citizens.

Thank you from Brookhurst Primary

Ongoing training ensures that the hundreds of Neighbourhood Watch Coordinators throughout England & Wales are able to continue their valuable, voluntary contribution to their local communities. We have committed to sponsoring the cost of ongoing data protection training for the next 12 months to help ensure that all the activities carried out by coordinators remain compliant with current GDPR legislation.

As part of our ongoing support for Neighbourhood Watch throughout England & Wales, and in recognition of the many thousands of voluntary hours that Neighbourhood Watch Coordinators dedicate to keeping their local communities safe, we were very proud to be the headline sponsors for the 2022 National Neighbourhood Watch Conference that took place in London in May.

VISAV have sponsored the Sherwood (Phone Box) Book Share which is now up and running!

Toni Price - Sherwood resident, Nottingham community worker, mum, friend and avid reader - sadly died in May 2021. Before she died, she made arrangements with Lisa and Mike of Sherwood Business Centre to buy a red phone box as a dedication to her mum, Pat Price, and as a gift to the community she loved so much.

A friend of VISAV's Company Secretary, Adi Wood from Nottingham, is currently staying with his fiancée, who lives in Kielce, Poland, approximately 40 miles from the Ukrainian border. 

He was very keen to do something to help the Ukrainian refugees and, after an appeal by Lisa Douglas, £600 has been raised and transferred so far. 

Adi has been liaising with a local Polish charity and, with the financial donations he has received, has been  buying supplies for them to take to the border, as well as helping Ukrainian refugees who have arrived in Kielce in Poland. 

VISAV has donated £400 to the appeal and this will go a long way to buying desperately needed supplies for those in need.

VISAV Ltd were proud to support the Safer Cambridgeshire Policing Awards held on Friday 5 November. 

Sarah Cooper, Head of Cambridgeshire Police Corporate Communications told us, “It was our fourth awards ceremony to recognise officers and staff for the work they do day in and day out, to keep the people of Cambridgeshire safe - and we believe it was a great success! 

It was down your company's generosity, along with our other sponsors, in donating a prize to the event, that made the event as good as it was and enabled us to recognise the officers, staff and volunteers who attended the ceremony, in such a brilliant way.

After hearing about the devastating news about damage created by a thunderstorm to the building of Coventry Citizens Advice, VISAV offered to help with the repairs to the building.  Kate Algate, CEO said 'it was so stressful seeing water literally coming down from the ceilings and questioning how we were going to repair it. As a local charity, we struggle to secure funding for such events and it was a relief when VISAV said they would support us, especially at such a busy time when demand for our services are so high.'
