As a thank you for everyone's hard work in the first half of the year, Leasedirect took everybody to the cinema for the afternoon! They closed the offices, hired a private screen and treated everyone to sweets, ice creams and drinks. It was really well received by all and was something a bit different to show their gratitude.

Leasedirect encourage an open forum for suggestions and feedback. All departmental managers actively seek new ideas from their teams within their regular team meetings and one-to-ones. At their last Christmas party, they gave everyone giant post-it notes and asked them to put any suggestions on a big blank wall, which also proved a novel and fun way of them getting their ideas across allowing them anonymity if desired. Key sales people have been nominated and taken an active role in the overall management of their business. Leasedirect also regularly 'survey' their employees for ideas, suggestions and feedback on initiatives they are planning before they are launched. Their people are included in all development initiatives in respect of their working environment and the projects that the business supports within the local community.

Leasedirect have introduced a twice weekly fruit delivery across the business which provides all staff with free fruit. They have also introduced a scheme to help people stop smoking. They are keen to support all employees with a desire to stop smoking, from funding the cost of nicotine patches to hypnotherapy Leasedirect have also negotiated a discounted rate for all staff at their local gym and are part of a cycle to work scheme.
