Community

For many years, we have supported this pioneering charity, providing funding and our professional time.  This Trust offers support for young people who are not in education, employment, or training but have ideas and ambitions for their future.

As founding members of their ‘ASYSTORS Panel’ we offer our time, advice and the funding to young people deserving an opportunity to set up their own business.  In the past 7 years we have seen and advised over 80 candidates and donated to many of these.

In 2023 Morris Property entered into exciting new territory: a two-year partnership with Shrewsbury Town Football Club as front of shirt sponsors. Our two organisations share a passion for Shrewsbury with our heritage and strong sense of family values. We feel we are two local institutions who have shown we know how to grow, to change and adapt in order to be successful.

Last Christmas everyone enthusiastically took up the challenge of our Reverse Advent Calendar idea where we donated vital food items each day of Advent to this worthy cause. Over 500 products were donated to the hub and greatly received by the volunteers.

The Property team love to inspire youngsters to learn about their built environment and donated mini hard hats, high-vis vests, wheel barrows, tarpaulins and paint brushes to St Anthony’s Catholic Primary Academy in Wolverhampton recently to show the youngsters how a construction site looks and feels.

In 2019 in celebration of our 150^th year anniversary, we were proud to award a three-year Morris Scholarship at University Centre Shrewsbury (UCS) to Paige Eades who subsequently graduated with a first-class honours degree in Business Studies and joined our business in May 2022.

As part of our dynamic Marketing team today, Paige is our social media queen ensuring we engage with business and consumer audiences for the products and services we offer within the company.

We are active members of the Chamber enjoying the benefits of networking opportunities with our business community, sharing experiences and knowledge and taking part in many of their helpful training courses.
