Norwich Union and children’s charity NCH have won the Community Service Volunteers(
CSV) Make A Difference Day Awards after winning the best employee team volunteering
event.
A team of 50 volunteers from Norwich Union’s Life Telebusiness area transformed
a garden using ideas put forward by the young

carers at the NCH Willows project in King’s Lynn, Norfolk. They created a quiet 
area with flower beds and a sea scene mural where the children and young people 
can relax.

David Czerwinski, head of community at Norwich Union, said: “The employee volunteering
programme, part of our ‘Young Lives, Our Future’ partnership with NCH, is all about
giving employees the opportunity to make a difference in their local community, 
which fits well with the aims of CSV’s Make a Difference Day.”

people with the help they need to reach their potential. Norwich Union is

investing £1.4 million into the partnership over a five-year period. It

forms part of a larger Norwich Union sponsorship programme aimed at

investing in the future of our children.
