We are proud to introduce our six new Cadent Foundation Community Fund charities, as voted for by our colleagues. The Community Fund was set up in partnership with Cadent and the Cadent Foundation to enable our colleagues to support and fundraise for local charities that mean something to them.
Our 6 chosen charities will each receive a £20,000 donation from the Cadent Foundation, which will then be topped up by our colleague fundraising over the next two years.
Let’s meet them:
- Central - The Myton Hospices - Which provides specialist palliative and end of life care to local people facing incurable illness in Coventry and Warwickshire.
- East of England – St Helena Hospice providing specialist palliative and end of life care to local people facing incurable illness in north east Essex, supporting them, their families, friends and carers.
- East Midlands – Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People – providing expert palliative and end-of-life care for babies, children and young people at their hospice, at home or in hospital across Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire.
- North London – The Paul Alan Project – providing accessible defibrillators and bleed control kits across England including events and training sessions.
- North West – The Children’s Adventure Farm Trust providing day trips, residential breaks and seasonal activities for children across the North West whose lives may be impacted by illness, complex medical needs, special educational needs, disability and social disadvantage.
- West Midlands – Family Care Trust – offering professional care and support services to individuals with mental health conditions, learning disabilities, and physical disabilities.
In addition to our fundraising, our colleagues will also use their volunteering days to give their time to help with tasks that add more value to the charity.
We are excited to support these deserving charities and see what difference we can make together.
