Community Support Request application process
To ensure we create a fair division of benefits to our communities, we have developed a Community Support Request application process.
Before completing the application form, please read this guide carefully to make sure you understand the terms and conditions of the scheme and its selection criteria.
Selection Criteria
There are four key pillars supporting the Heron Bros. Corporate Responsibility Strategy:
- Responsible Procurement

The following types of events/projects are considered to be inappropriate:
- Programmes offered by political organisations;
- Programmes that denigrate, exclude or offend minority community groups;
- Programmes that may present a hazard to the community;
