At Lansafe, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) isn’t a policy, it’s part of who we are.
We believe that every business has a role to play in supporting local communities, that’s why we actively invest our time, resources, and heart into projects that uplift, support, and bring real, lasting value to our community. We’re incredibly proud to support our community with no financial gain, driven purely by genuine care and a desire to make a lasting and tangible difference right here in the community where we were founded and are based.

A news story caught our attention – A break-in that threatened the progression of an invaluable organisation in our community, The Brick. As the details unfolded in the local papers, so did our determination to contribute to the safety and well-being of this essential charity and its staff.
We quickly partnered with The Brick, donating them with an entirely new security system to enhance their safety and well-being. This collaboration inspired us to launch our annual ‘Charity of the Year’ campaign, and we were proud to announce The Brick as our inaugural partner for 2023. Since then, we’ve continued to work closely with them, offering ongoing support in every way we can.
Following the incredible success and meaningful partnership forged with our first Charity of the Year in 2023, we were inspired to continue this vital initiative year on year.
Embrace Wigan and Leigh was proudly announced as Lansafe’s 2024 Charity of the Year, chosen after the community submitted an outstanding number of nominations highlighting their tireless dedication to empowering disabled individuals and their families. Lansafe was delighted to support their vital work by offering our managed services and IT support expertise, and we continue to help them in every way we can.
After careful deliberation we proudly selected AB UK as our “Helping Wigan Thrive” 2025 partner. This decision was made following a board-wide vote and in-person visits to better understand where our support would make the biggest impact. AB UK is a Wigan-based charity dedicated to improving the lives of children, young people, and adults with autism and additional needs. Through a range of inclusive social activities, support groups, and community engagement initiatives, ABUK creates safe, supportive environments where individuals can build confidence, make friends, and feel a true sense of belonging. Led by Cordelia, AB UK impressed the board with their passion, impact, and potential for wider community benefit.
“Helping Wigan Thrive” was created with one clear goal: to bring together local businesses and charities to make a tangible difference in our community. Originally a small initiative, the project has quickly grown, thanks in no small part to the tireless dedication of our Community Co-Ordinator, Hannah Roby.
The initiave has now become a collaborative platform, with it’s own dedicated Community Board, where skills, time and services are donated to support charities, CICs (Community Interest Companies), trusts, and other community organisations.
At Lansafe, we’re absolutely delighted to be sponsoring the Independent Business of the Year category at the 2025 Wigan Business Awards. As a proud, family-run business that started right here in Wigan, this award stands for everything we believe in, resilience, community, and the power of independence. Supporting this category is about more than sponsorship; it’s a celebration of the same entrepreneurial spirit that has shaped our own journey over the past two decades. We know firsthand what it takes to build something from the ground up, and we’re honoured to shine a spotlight on the local businesses doing just that, making a real impact in our region.
As part of our commitment to the future, we are working in partnership with Wigan Council to explore Supported Internships, offering real-world experience in IT, customer service, and business operations.
As a proud member of the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter, Lansafe is committed to creating fair, inclusive and supportive workplaces.
By promoting secure jobs, fair pay, and wellbeing, we’re helping to build stronger communities and create lasting positive change across our region. This commitment extends beyond our team, positively impacting families, communities, and the local economy as a whole.
The rapid growth of our community work has led to a newly created role Community Co-Ordinator, proudly held by Hannah Roby. From coordinating charity visits to managing partnerships and leading the community board, Hannah brings passion, positivity, and a genuine drive to support those in need.
Her commitment goes far beyond her job title whether it’s organising free services or supporting infrastructure repairs, she leads by example.
(We know she wouldn’t want the credit, but we believe the community should know who’s making this all happen!)
Lansafe’s Junior Engineer, Billy Roby, is embarking on an inspiring personal challenge for a fantastic cause. In 2026, Billy will be lacing up his running shoes to tackle the demanding Manchester Marathon. This isn’t just about personal achievement; Billy is running to raise crucial funds for our Charity Partner of this year ABUK, an incredibly important charity which hosts SEN playgroups and parent support group for any families with children who have autism and additional needs, as well as Neurotypical and Inclusive play sessions in the Wigan community.
We’ll be cheering our Billy on every step of the way!
After hearing about the Diamond Community Centre, Ashton, being broken into and ransacked, our Community Coordinator, Hannah Roby, reached out to offer help, and within days, our team installed a state-of-the-art, fully monitored alarm system. This restored crucial security and peace of mind for the centre’s management and the community it serves.
Sarah, who manages The Diamond Centre, said:
“We were devastated when we discovered the centre had been broken into. Thankfully, for every bad person who would do something like that, there are good people like those at Lansafe who quickly contacted me and offered to fit us an alarm system completely free! It’s given us such peace of mind to know the centre is now secure, and if anyone tries to break in again, the alarm will go off at the centre and on the phones of myself and the managers. Huge thank you to Lansafe, it’s massively appreciated.”
