Corporate responsibility
URENCO in the local community
URENCO understands that it cannot act in isolation of its local community. URENCO must take responsibility for the outcome of its operations by understanding how it impacts on neighbouring communities and how it can make a positive contribution.
URENCO works hard at building strong relations with the communities in which it operates. Recognising that each locality has a diverse cultural mix, support varies from charitable donations to providing educational support to local schools and colleges.
Visitor’s Centre
Almelo
URENCO in Almelo, the Netherlands, recently restyled its visitors centre. It’s an attractive and educational place for both adults and children from the age of 12. As children are not allowed to visit the enrichment plant, there is a special program for them to learn about URENCO. Almelo can receive visitor groups up to 30 people.
Capenhurst
URENCO UK Ltd at Capenhurst welcomes visitors to the site. Site tours can be booked for groups of up to 25 people. The visits incorporate presentations giving information on the company's core business and a visit to one of our enrichment plants.
Gronau
The URENCO visitors’ centre at URENCO Deutschland (Gronau), Germany, has become a real asset to the town, hosting a variety of events and receiving over 2,500 visitors in the course of 2007.
