Community

As active members of Malvern Rotary Club and Malvern Inner Wheel, the managing director and lead secretary are always keen to get involved with local or international community projects. BK Heating & Son Ltd has sponsored a variety of events, aligning with the ethos of our company.

Bruce raising over £10,000 for St Richards Hospice, Acorns Hospice and Malvern Community Hospital

Bruce has been an active member and current president of Malvern Rotary Club since 1999. Through the club he engages with local causes as well as supporting overseas charities. As of 2021, Oliver, Bruce’s son, has volunteered annually with the Tree of Lights in Malvern, assisting the tree surgeon in stringing the lights on the tree ahead of the lighting ceremony.

Oliver going up the tree

We continue to support the Tree of lights project every Christmas in Priory Park. As of 2021, Oliver, Bruce’s son, has volunteered annually with the Tree of Lights in Malvern, assisting the tree surgeon in stringing the lights on the tree ahead of the lighting ceremony.

 

When we volunteer for events little do we appreciate how each experience
benefits us in our work life too. Team work on the day, supporting and
encouraging and also ready to help others with their efforts. In a work
case scenario, if a customer is planning a project we can work with them
through the planning stage, make suggestions and then complete our work as
our contribution.

Malvern Inner Wheel

Kathryn is an active member of Malvern Inner Wheel engaging and helping local causes. From raising money to providing afternoon tea for the local partially sighted club at Christmas. Alongside this, both Bruce and Kathryn regularly give their time to other local charities.

Commonwealth Games 2022

Kathryn was a volunteer for the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony in Birmingham working within the costumes department. As an amateur dressmaker it was a great opportunity to work alongside professionals and learn new techniques. Oliver got involved too with the opening ceremony as a volunteer in the formation of the Union Jack created by red, white, and blue vehicles. Oliver was driving the family’s classic red mini. 

Kathryn mighty hike marathon

Kathryn has completed two Might Hike marathon walks for Macmillan raising
hundreds of pounds in the process. Unfortunately on the second walk, the
planned team member had to drop out before the start and Oliver stepped in
at the last moment. The ‘man of the mountain’ was an inspiration to the
team and fellow walkers.
