The causes our Charitable Foundation supports were originally selected by our colleagues, and as the Foundation develops, we want our fundraising initiatives to be something that all colleagues can get involved with. We want to offer inclusive and fun challenges that everyone can join in with regardless of role, location, or sporting ability.

Our first companywide fundraising challenge is designed to unite colleagues, boosting fitness, well-being, team spirit, and inclusivity across the business.

To celebrate our 45th birthday, we aim to collectively cover the distance of 45,000 miles over 45 days with a fundraising target of £45k.

Between 1st September and 16th October 2025, colleagues can complete their miles:

- all in-one-go or across the course of the 45 days;

- as a team or individually;

- via cycling, walking, running, swimming, skateboarding… all physical/non-motorised modes of transport are welcome!

- activity should be in addition to normal daily step-count, and logged on a central tracker;

Colleagues are asking friends/family to sponsor them for their participation in the collective effort, or for their individual effort depending how hard they those to make it!

We’re a competitive bunch, so there will be leaderboards and prizes for achievements (weekly and overall) such as Best Performance, Top Fundraiser, and Most Engaged (best fancy dress/best story/most inventive mode of transport/best social post).

We'll update our supporters regularly to keep everyone aware of our collective progress.
