Story
In 2024 we raised over £80,000 for Norfolk causes... now it's time for our 2025 challenges!
As a business with deep roots in the local community, Sowerbys remains committed to giving back to the people and organisations that have supported it for over three decades.
One of two chosen charities to support in 2025 is Finnbar's Force.
About Finnbar’s Force
In 2016, Tristan Cork and his family established Finnbar’s Force in memory of his son Finnbar who sadly passed away age five with a rare aggressive brain tumour.
The charity ss dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and families facing childhood cancer in Norfolk.
From providing crucial information and emotional support to offering practical assistance, the charity commits to walking alongside those in need, together, fighting childhood cancer and building a brighter future for the community.
Tristan said: "We are absolutely delighted to have been chosen as a charity partner for Sowerbys in 2025.
“It's an incredible honour to be associated with such a respected and community-minded company. Partnerships with local organisations are instrumental in our mission to expand our bespoke support programmes for families and reach more children facing cancer across Norfolk.
“The funds raised will make a real difference, helping us to provide financial grants for families struggling with the extra costs associated with childhood cancer treatment, offer more sessions with our holistic therapists, and expand our practical and emotional support team.
“We are incredibly excited to work alongside the Sowerbys team and be involved in their fantastic fundraising efforts."
Our 2025 fundraising activities will include community events, staff-led challenges, and the continuation of a donation for every home sold.
From endurance challenges to engaging local events, the team is ready to work together to raise awareness and funds for these inspiring charities.
Max Sowerby, Managing Director, added: “Supporting the local community is a core value at Sowerbys, and this commitment remains unwavering in 2025.
“Both Norfolk and Waveney Mind and Finnbar’s Force reflect the values of care, resilience, and hope, which resonate deeply with the company and the communities it serves.
“The upcoming year presents an opportunity to make a meaningful impact through a variety of fundraising events and initiatives.”
Thank you for your support - any donation makes a difference and means so much to us and the charity.
