<Charity of the Year>
Nominate us as a charity for a short period of time to fundraise exclusively for. This is often done via a pitch process and a staff vote. The money is normally raised via employee fundraising within the organisation often through bake sales, quizzes, challenge events.
We were honoured to be named Lockton’s Charity of the Year for 2022-2023. In this time, Lockton’s Charitable Trust has donated over £260,000.
Highlights of our partnership
