Helping to make a difference

Congratulations to our colleagues across the business who have helped to raise an incredible £752,000 for charity in 2018 through charity balls, golf days, cycling events and more. With Group Matching and other donations last year, we donated £1.14million to charities that matter most to us. We take a look at what some of our divisions did last year to help raise money.

Mark Bailey, our MD from Kent, cycled 471 miles of the Pyrenees spending 38 hours in the saddle and raising an incredible £8,430 for the men’s mental health charity, CALM.

Show home furniture donated to Earl Mountbatten Hospice from our Southampton division generated £2,376 which will go towards helping those facing death, dying and bereavement.

West Midlands were looking pretty in pink at their Wear it Pink Day in October where their bake sale, raffle, and ‘name the pug’ competition raised over £300 for Breast Cancer Care. Fantastic!

Our Manchester division raised over £16,500 for Francis House Children's Hospice with a charity Golf Day and Sportsman's Dinner which was attended by 150 guests.
