At Stephenson, we’re proud to support our local Horsforth community, valuing the connections that drive both our work and shared growth forward.
Community
Horsforth
Since 1856, Stephenson has been rooted in Horsforth, evolving from a small operation into a prominent manufacturer while staying true to its local heritage. Our long history here reflects a commitment to quality and innovation that began over a century ago.
We’re proud to employ local talent whose work ethic and character are a perfect fit with our company values. By hiring locally, we strengthen community connections and foster a shared commitment to our craft and sustainability goals, creating products that represent both our history and Horsforth's enduring spirit.

Getting Clean Social Enterprise Partnership
Stephenson, a global leader in personal care and cosmetic ingredients, has pledged its support for Yorkshire-based social enterprise CIC Getting Clean.
This volunteering project was formed by recovering addicts to support those still struggling with addiction in local communities in Leeds, helping them stay clean and sober. Getting Clean’s ‘Soap with Hope’ programme assists recovering people with an addiction in therapeutic soap-making workshops.
Horsforth Community Garden
A dedicated team of Horsforth residents has worked to take on guardianship of a piece of land in Horsforth Hall Park, just outside the entrance to the Japanese Garden.
The first phase, for which Stephenson has very generously donated £1000 towards, is to create the structure of the garden, which will include installing paths to can ensure the Garden is fully accessible to everyone. Due to the Garden being in a public place, external contractors are needed to do this structural work, and the funds need to be in place to contract them.
Giving Back to Local Food Bank
By supporting Leeds North and West Foodbank in Burley, we can help provide and support to local people referred to them during these tough times. This food bank is a part of a nationwide network supported by The Trussell Trust, working together to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. You can read some fantastic stories where support has helped change lives here.
