We are very supportive of our employees getting involved in fundraising for charities of their choice. We match employee fundraising efforts pound for pound and encourage participation at all levels. In addition we have a nominated charity that we support as an organisation each year.

We have a Charity Action Group comprising representatives from all departments that organises fund raising events throughout the year.

Nominated charity

Our chosen charity for this year is Helen & Douglas House.

Helen & Douglas House is a registered charity providing respite and end of life care for children and young adults with life-shortening conditions, as well as support and friendship for the whole family. The two hospice houses are bright, vibrant and positive places, where the emphasis is on living life to the full, even when that life may be short.

Children can stay at Helen House and young adults can stay at Douglas House, along with their families, for short periods of time for rest and recuperation, treatment of distressing symptoms, end of life care and support.
