London Luton Airport sits at the heart of a growing, vibrant and diverse community. We are committed to doing what we can to enhance the quality of life of local people, in partnership with others.

It is our aim “to be a great neighbour, contributing passionately and thoughtfully to the social, economic and environmental life of its community.”

London Luton Airport recognises that a well-educated and skilled population is critical to the long term success of our community.

London Luton Airport already has strong links with Barnfield College, the new Academies, Luton Sixth Form College and The University of Bedfordshire. It is
our intention to build on these relationships, as well as developing educational
programmes aimed at local primary and secondary schools.

London Luton Airport launched ‘Flying for Success’ as a permanent educational programme for schools in 2009.

London Luton Airport works closely with Team Beds & Luton (the County Sports Partnership), and is a member of the Bedfordshire Olympic Opportunity Support Team (BOOST), which underlines our commitment to increasing participation in sport and other activities in the local area.

We will build on these partnerships, and seek other ways to help improve activity and participation levels within the community. We will also ensure that airport employees have access to sporting opportunities and advice on healthier lifestyles.

London Luton Airport sits within a culturally diverse community, celebrated through local arts and other creative media. We are proud of our affinity with Luton and its very strong identity.

By working with local agencies and groups, we will ensure that the cultural heritage of the local area is preserved and celebrated, and that access to the arts for all age groups is increased.

Over 8,000 employees currently work at London Luton Airport with the figure rising to almost 10,000 in the busy summer period. The Airport itself is a very large community.

Like talking to our neighbours, communication across the Airport is important if we are to achieve our vision. We will work to improve pan-airport communication to ensure the Airport community is involved in the delivery
of this strategy.

Many of our employees also live in the surrounding communities. We will listen to our staff to learn about and support local projects and initiatives that are important to them.
