February is Heart Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about heart and circulatory diseases and supporting the incredible work being done to fight them. It’s the perfect opportunity to shine a spotlight on our Charity of the Year – the British Heart Foundation (BHF).
Why the British Heart Foundation?
This year, we wanted our Charity of the Year to be something truly meaningful to our team. The decision was put to a company-wide vote, and the British Heart Foundation was selected with the most votes.
The result reflects how strongly our team feels about supporting heart health and funding vital research. Heart and circulatory diseases affect millions of people across the UK, and the BHF’s work in funding life-saving research, providing support and information, and campaigning for better heart health makes a real and lasting difference.
Our Fundraising So Far
Walking Challenge - 7,000,000 Steps!
We set ourselves an ambitious target of 7,000,000 steps - and we’re proud to say we smashed it!
Collectively, we covered a distance further than New Delhi, which is an incredible achievement and a testament to the dedication of our team. Not only did the challenge get us moving and prioritising our own heart health, but it also helped us raise vital funds for the BHF.
It’s amazing what can be achieved when everyone pulls together for a cause that matters.
Christmas Party Fundraiser
Our Christmas celebrations had a charitable twist, featuring:
- A fun and competitive quiz.
- A festive bake sale filled with homemade treats.
- A very successful raffle with gifts donated from members of the company.
A huge thank you to everyone who baked, donated, and took part - your support made a real difference.
Christmas Jumper Day
We embraced the festive spirit with a Christmas Jumper Day, adding some colour and creativity to the workplace while raising even more for our chosen charity.
