MENTAL HEALTH, PHYSICAL HEALTH
AND WELL BEING
We continued to develop a comprehensive programme
of communication and activities to support mental
health and well-being across our colleague base during
FY23. This activity is communicated through our
global wellbeing portal which includes a wide range
of resources on stress management, meditation and
virtual yoga, as well as ongoing guidance to managers
on how to spot the signs of mental ill-health within their
teams, and resources for them to support colleagues
昀椀nding themselves in need.
OUR COMMUNITIES
We provide an active
programme of charitable
support and promote foreign
language learning actively
through school and university
partnership programmes
including RWS Campus and the RWS-Brode
Scholarship Programme.
Our philanthropic initiatives have
been consolidated under the new RWS
Foundation. Donations by RWS and the
RWS Foundation this year amounted
to about £467,000. RWS encourages its
colleagues to volunteer in the community
and 昀椀ve working days can be taken
annually to get involved in charitable
initiatives. Over 800 volunteering days
were taken in FY23.
To learn more about all the RWS
Foundation’s fundraising initiatives taking
place across our o昀케ces, visit pages 48 to
59 of our 2023 ESG Report.
CLEAR GLOBAL
CLEAR Global (formerly Translators without Borders)
was selected as the Foundation's 昀椀rst bene昀椀ciary of
2023. CLEAR Global is a non-pro昀椀t global community of
linguists who help people in need to get vital information
and be heard, whatever language they speak. RWS is
supporting the initiative by sharing
resources and providing support with
our own network of in-house translators.
Ongoing support includes translating,
localising and reviewing critical content,
managing large-scale projects, providing
training to translators and members and
analysing data to ensure the highest
translation standards are maintained.
Visit pages 45 to 46 of our 2023 ESG Report to learn
more about these initiatives.
