Premier Partnership

Alongside this, we strive to assist the community in whatever ways that we realistically can, regularly undertaking events and fundraising at a local level, as children from St Peters Catholic Primary School, Doncaster and Southfield Primary School in Armthorpe can attest as they were given a helping hand with their lockdown learning after Premier Partnership donated 20 tablets to each school to distribute as they felt necessary amongst their pupils as the schools closed during lockdown and children having to home school.

Our colleagues and suppliers are also involved in local community work with links to junior and senior football and rugby clubs, helping get boys and girls of all ages involved in sport, and other activities including charity work.
