Albin International Corporate Social Responsibility Project

"On our shoulders"

It is an old tradition in the United Kingdom to carry the coffin on the shoulders. This represents the profound respect for the deceased on their last journey. It also represents the love, care and dignity dedicated to those who have died. This has been our goal from the very beginning, and we have chosen the theme “On our Shoulders” to represent it throughout our work and our corporate social responsibility project.


Albin International Repatriation Limited is a participant of the United Nations Global Compact.
The United Nations Global Compact is a strategic policy initiative for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.” http://www.unglobalcompact.org/

The current status of our initiative is detailed on the attached PDF file which is available via the link. Global_Compact_Annual_Communication Nov2013.pdf

We also support the Albin Dyer Bermondsey and Rotherhithe Foundation, for the relief of local people and causes. This charity has provided a mini-bus to a local club, assisted with the provision of disabled ramps and access, and has provided numerous scholarships and sponsorships to local worthy causes.
