Support for The Grace Academy, Coventry
We are very happy to share our experience of the support that Opus Land have provided, and continue to provide, our Academy.
At Grace, we have a disproportionately high number of disadvantaged students and over the last 18 months we have been developing relationships with different corporations to support our students from both an academic and pastoral point of view.
As part of this project, Richard Smith and Opus Land have been working with us. Richard joined our governing body to bring business, infrastructure and financial expertise to our team and, since doing so, has been instrumental in supporting us to save a significant amount of money on both our energy and resources; his expertise has been invaluable.
What has been even more supportive, however, is Richard’s dedication to improving the lives of children from really challenging backgrounds, providing inspiring talks with young people and being able to connect the school with other businesses who wish to build a relationship through their corporate responsibility.
I highly recommend working with Opus Land and feel that their moral focus and moral compass is aligned with truly improving the lives of children and helping them to gain experiences they may not necessarily be afforded otherwise.
