We didn't really have much chance to get involved with more than socials. The work was demanding and we also had an assessed case study to write in our own time. We did, however, have an induction to the Corporate Responsibility programme, and it seems like there are lots of opportunities to get involved with this, and lots of trainees appear to take part.
