Recrion's most recent Corporate Social Responsibility initiative was held on Tuesday 28 July and was a huge success.
We opted for a fun flambouyant evening of swishing (also known as wardrobe swapping) in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care. And fun it was! 17 local business women attended bringing 5 quality nearly new garments with them, and after a very informative overview from image consultant Susan Lawton and on what we should be wearing (and not wearing) we swished!

Recrion has recently been celebrating the enviable achievement of being recognised as one of the most innovative and successful businesses in its locality by being voted runner-up in both Best Business and Business Personality of the Year categories at this year’s prestigious Stamford Mercury Business Awards.
Now in its third successful year the highly popular Stamford Mercury (Britain’s oldest newspaper) Business Awards is focused on highlighting and promoting the very best of business talent and services in the Rutland and Lincolnshire area.
Recrion was first notified of its success of being nominated as a finalist in the Best Business and Business Personality of the Year categories by letter in February this year (Recrion Founder and Director, Katherine was nominated in the Business Personality of the Year section). As part of the decision making process, Katherine and the Recrion team were interviewed by category sponsors: leading UK accountancy firm Duncan & Toplis together with renowned recruitment expert, Anne Corder. The Recrion team also had the novel experience of being filmed as they went about their daily business as during the awards ceremony a short video clip of each finalist was screened to highlight the specific attributes of each business and/or nominee.
Katherine Wiid comments: “I am delighted that Recrion has been acknowledged in this way and that the all the hard work and efforts of the team have been recognised. Our local business community is extremely important to us. As well as being great fun the awards ceremony also provided an excellent networking opportunity. Between dining courses we were approached by a leading company who were very interested in using our outsourced HR and recruitment services”.
The evening at the Greetham Valley Golf Club was a resounding success and thoroughly enjoyed by all!
