We pride ourselves on being an active member of the communities in which we work. As a business we support a number of local and national organisations. We also encourage our staff to engage with community and voluntary groups and look to provide real support to help them to do this, for example, by offering paid “charity days” and matching fundraising activities up to a certain value.
While charitable and fundraising activities take place regularly for a variety of charities and community initiatives, each of our offices selects a local “Charity of the Year” to support.
For 25 years, Jimmy’s has been providing help to people experiencing homelessness in Cambridge. They work with local people, communities, organisations, and partners to deliver 24/7 emergency help, support and accommodation 365 days a year for those who would otherwise be sleeping rough.
The Food Bank provides emergency food parcels to local families and individuals who hit a short term crisis.
MK Food Bank relies entirely on donations of food and money from local schools, churches, businesses, organisations and individuals and every single item or penny given makes a difference.
In the first 6 weeks of 2022 MK Food Bank gave out more than 2,500 food parcels. This is around 10% up on last year – and rising. It also means that they are running dangerously low on all core food items.
Since 1997, Nelson’s Journey has been supporting children and young people in Norfolk with their bereavement needs, helping them to understand and cope with their feelings. The charity also supports professionals in the county who work with children, such as teachers and health workers, to help raise awareness of issues affecting bereaved children.
Nelson’s Journey’s vision is that every bereaved child in Norfolk will look forward to a positive future, empowered to reach their full potential.
For over 135 years, the RSPCA Leicestershire Branch has been caring for mistreated, abandoned and neglected animals in Leicestershire and Rutland. Based at the Woodside Animal Centre site, they are a local independently registered charity. Receiving no Government or regular funding, they rely on the generosity of their supporters and the public to help fund their work to improve animal welfare in the region.

Trussell Trust support more than 1,200 food bank centres in the UK to provide a minimum of three days’ nutritionally-balanced emergency food to people who have been referred in crisis, as well as support to help people resolve the crises they face.

Howes Percival is proud support young people in East Anglia by becoming one of The Careers & Enterprise Company’s Cornerstone Employers.
