Day Of Action Success

On Thursday 14 August, we hosted our ‘Day of Action’ in Immingham in what turned out to be a brilliant day for our customers and local community.

The day was split into two halves: a clean-up event which was hosted in the morning, followed by a party in the park in the afternoon!

The community clean-up was focused around the Ings Lane area of Immingham and was ran in conjunction with Immingham Town Council.

We also had help from Frank Sparks, AKA The North Wall Cleaner and a team of volunteers from Phillips 66; the energy manufacturing and logistics company.

Volunteers and colleagues took part in litter picking and a general tidy up of the area; resulting in the pathways not only looking cleaner, but also making them more accessible.

A significant amount of fly tipping was tackled, with mattresses, old prams, discarded electronics and more, being removed from Ings Lane.

By the end of the clean-up, the area looked significantly cleaner, creating a much nicer environment for the people living nearby.

After the collective clean-up efforts, we headed over to Spring Street Park - where our newly built playground is located – for an afternoon of community celebration!

Refreshments and snacks were provided by the local Tesco, thanks to one of our customers! Children played on the bouncy castle, and families enjoyed playing games together in the sunshine!

We also had visits from Humberside Police, as well as local partners – including Love Immingham – who were asking customers at the event what things they’d like to see in Immingham in the future and One Voice, the community project.

NAP Corporate sponsor of Immingham, Emily McKenna said: “Events like this are a brilliant way to get the community involved in a productive, yet enjoyable way.”

“Ings Lane looks so much better thanks to the clean-up efforts and the party in the park has been a nice way to round off the day and give something back to our Immingham customers.”

All in all, it was a fantastic day for the community and great to be able to see colleagues and customers coming together in a positive way.

A big thank you to everyone who took part, whether you were able to come to one of the events, or both of them, your support was invaluable to this brilliant community event!
