We are proud to announce our charity partners for 2026/27, we will be supporting five organisations that reflect the causes most meaningful to colleagues across the UK. Our partnerships include two national charities – Alzheimer’s Research UK and CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) – alongside three local charity partners: Little Village in London, The Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Buckinghamshire in Wellingborough, and Health in Mind in Edinburgh.
These partnerships reflect a mix of continuing and new multi‑year commitments, enabling us to build long‑term relationships with our charity partners.
Our purpose is simple – to ensure a brighter future for the next generation, by tackling the challenges of today and those of the future. It’s why our charity partners have been chosen by our staff – causes that resonate with them and are close to their hearts.
