Our Facilities teams are gearing up for their charitable Christmas events already.
At Farnborough Business Park, a Christmas wreath making event is being held on 6th December – there were 100 places which sold out within days raising £500 so far for the local charity, Community Matters Partnership Project. Alongside this, all occupiers are participating in a winter coat drive to help the less fortunate, with over 80 coats having been collected since 3rd November. This is being organised by the local charity, The Vine Centre.
At Pacific House in Reading, the Facilities team are planning a Christmas market, of which 25% of the proceeds will be donated to a local homeless charity, LaunchpadAt Harbour Exchange 3, St. Vincent House, Dover Street and Conduit Street in London, the Facilities teams have chosen to support the Samaritans with their Operation Christmas Child. Occupiers will be participating to give donations and gifts to the less fortunate children around the globe.
At Idlewells Shopping Centre in Sutton-in-Ashfield, the Centre team will be holding their Christmas Grotto to fundraise for a local charity which is yet to be confirmed.
At The Bourse in Leeds and Churchgate & Lee House in Manchester the Facilities teams have decided to support Mission Christmas for Cash for Kids by donating gifts or cash for children across the UK. At Churchgate & Lee they are also hosting a Christmas event for their occupiers with mulled wine, mince pies, cakes, a choir and a few stalls.
