Northern Print Solutions receives ‘Shared Value’ Award for support of homelessness charity

The Award is in recognition of the support the charity has received over the past 12 months from Northern Print Solutions Ltd and celebrates the success of what we are sure will become a fantastic corporate partnership.

Oasis Community Housing’s Chief Executive, David Smith, said:

“Our Shared Value Awards recognise those businesses that go above and beyond in support of our charity. Every year we deliver help, housing and, moreover, a place people feel they belong through our drop-ins, emergency accommodation and supported accommodation projects.

“We could not deliver what we do without the generous support of our valued corporate partners and the dedicated individuals within these businesses.”

For almost 40 years, Oasis Community Housing has been supporting people facing homelessness across North East England and South London. The charity works to address both immediate needs and the root causes of homelessness through its Basis crisis services; its Home 24/7 supported accommodations for young men, women, and mothers and babies; its Aspire unemployment support and financial skills training; and Empower programme for women escaping domestic abuse.

The charity’s Patron, the BBC’s Reverend Canon Kate Bottley, presented Northern Print Solutions Ltd with its Shared Value Award at Hilton Newcastle Gateshead on Friday. Commenting on receiving the Award, Craig Daly, Managing Director of Northern Print Solutions said,

“We are proud of our region’s heritage and the strong focus it places on community. That is why supporting causes that champion community is important to us.

The extraordinary work that Oasis Community Housing do in building a community of support, a sense of belonging and a positive outlook for those that find themselves homeless is invaluable. Their work has far-reaching effects on all those it touches, and we feel incredibly honoured to play such a small support part in their unique story”
