Social Contribution

Community Support

Kyocera is a founder member of Reading's business-community partnership organisation, Connect Reading, in the town where its UK headquarters is located. Connect Reading helps the business, voluntary and private sectors to work more effectively together in pursuit of common objectives. It is about the coincidence of commercial and social opportunity. Better decision making, better resourcing, better business and better living - for all Reading's citizens. In a relatively short time Connect Reading has demonstrated that genuine, strategic improvements in quality of life can be delivered relatively quickly by effective partnership working.

Since establishing a Support Centre in Milton Keynes, Kyocera Mita UK has become a supporter of the Milton Keynes Community Foundation, a local independent grant-making charity. The Foundation is part of a network of Community Foundations which award grants to strengthen local communities, create opportunities and tackle issues of disadvantage and exclusion. 

Its support is aimed at improving the quality of life and creating opportunities for the people who live in the Milton Keynes area both today and into the future. 

Kyocera was the winner of the Responsible Business Award at the inaugural Pride of Reading Awards in 2005. Since then we have become annual sponsors of the Business in Action category of the Awards. The Business in Action category recognises those companies that are working to make a real difference in their local community through environmental, charitable or voluntary activities. There are two categories, one for larger businesses and another to ensure that the equally valuable contributions of smaller companies is also recognised.
