As official sponsor since 2018, Mitsubishi Electric Europe UK Branch has been active in supporting a wide variety of events with Special Olympics GB. The partnership focuses on delivering a range of joint initiatives which underpin, promote and reiterate the inclusivity, wellbeing, and values through volunteering activities.

Mitsubishi Electric Europe UK Branch colleagues across the branch spent their weekend in the Lee Valley Athletics Centre, actively assisting athletes, managing equipment for all aspects of track/field events, cheering in the stands as well as prize giving at the North London & St Albans Athletic Event. Our team had a fantastic day with a great set of co-workers, learning from each other, and making new friendships by bringing people together.

It is more important than ever that everyone is given the chance to shine and realise their full potential. Mitsubishi Electric Europe UK Branch look forward to finding more opportunities for our colleagues to join in with the brilliant work Special Olympics GB achieves.

One of the volunteers, Glenn Lee said:
“I’d heard from colleagues in previous years about what a rewarding and uplifting day this event is, and I’m so glad I was finally able to find the time to join. It absolutely lived up to everything I’d heard, such an inspiring experience to be part of.”
