We recognise the prosperity of our business is closely aligned to the health and well-being of the communities in which we live and work. This is why we have a specific target to get all our employees involved in community activities by 2022.<\/p><p>In 2019, to strengthen our approach to community engagement we started to align all our local and global actions toward three areas of focus: \u2018Education\u2019; \u2018Health &amp; Wellbeing\u2019 and actions related to our \u2018Business and Textiles\u2019.<\/p><p>During 2019, we ran well over 400 activities in 19 different countries worldwide. We have been developing improved tracking mechanisms to be able to more accurately identify the level of input activity for these projects, and will be able to give more accurate information for 2020.<\/p><p>Measuring the impact of our community activities has always been challenging for us, as it is for other organisations, and we are also conscious that we are not experts in identifying needs and developing solutions, so we have been working during 2019 to develop global partnership relationships with organisations that do have this expertise. We are looking forward to launching the first such partnership in 2020 with the aim being to run pilot projects during 2020 and then to extend the partnership more widely in subsequent years.<\/p><h3
