Believing in the power of giving back and making a difference in our community, our Welcomm Team spent a rewarding day volunteering at the Eco-Village, embracing the spirit of teamwork and support.

As part of a fantastic pumpkin-fest, the team rolled up their sleeves to cook three delicious dishes – pumpkin pasta, pumpkin couscous and pumpkin curry. The activity brought people together through food and shared experiences. Volunteering isn’t only about giving time; it is also about creating connections, living our values and supporting our local community.

Taking on The Big Sleep Challenge!

We are partnering with The Bridge Homelessness to create a welcoming and safe space for companionship, progress and collaboration. The Big Sleep is a fundraising event where participants spend a night outdoors to raise awareness and funds for homelessness.

By experiencing a night without the comforts of home, we aim to better understand the challenges faced by those who are homeless. Our involvement demonstrates our commitment to social responsibility and the importance of support services.

Rooting for a Greener Future!

Our Welcomm Team took part in a tree-planting initiative with Harborough woodland, helping to create greener spaces and contribute to a more sustainable future. Tree planting plays a crucial role in combating climate change and improving air quality, providing essential habitats for wildlife.

By getting involved, we’re reinforcing our commitment to environmental sustainability and giving back to our community. Small actions create a healthier planet for future generations! 

Grow a Mo!

Men’s mental health matters. By raising awareness and vital funds for Movember, we stand in support of a cause that has a real impact on people’s lives.

This year, our Welcomm Team took on the Moustache Challenge; growing, styling and showcasing the best moustaches throughout November 2024.

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we smashed our target and raised £250. Every penny raised goes toward funding life-saving research, early detection for cancer and support programs that help men live healthier, happier and longer lives.

Tackling Youth Homelessness

Ending youth homelessness and facilitating employment for young people is essential for breaking the cycle of poverty, promoting economic stability, and enhancing social inclusion. Stable housing and meaningful work not only improve physical and mental health but also provide a pathway to financial independence and a productive future. By addressing these issues, we help ensure that all young people can thrive and contribute positively to society. 

In response to vulnerable youth, The Street Soccer Foundation: the national award-winning sport-for-change charity organised The Big Goal 2024. Our team took part in a series of national football tournaments to raise money for the charity and enable over 1,600 young people to join Street Soccer Foundation Academies.

Lighting Up Lives

In November 2024, our team had the privilege of volunteering at the Light Up a Life – Light Trail event. We spent the day helping to set up the stunning, festive lights for LOROS Hospice’s Memory Light Trail. It was a meaningful and rewarding experience, as we contributed to creating an atmosphere of warmth and remembrance for families and friends honouring their loved ones.

LOROS Hospice plays a crucial role in providing compassionate care and support to individuals and families facing some of life’s most difficult moments. The Light Trail serves as a heartfelt tribute, offering people a chance to remember and celebrate the lives of those they have lost.
