With a new incentive of a full day paid volunteering for every staff member, team Ford Mainwaring started the ball rolling by lending hands and hearts to three local charities across the region.
The initiative got underway with a small team volunteering at the YMCA in Hanley, where they helped pack food hampers for families in need, wrapped presents, and delivered them to residents on site. The day ended on a lighter note, with the team taking part in the YMCA’s in-house quiz and securing an impressive second-place finish.

Meanwhile, Commercial Leader Gareth spent his volunteering day supporting the local Soup Kitchen in Stafford, helping provide vital services to those in the community who need them most.

Finally, some of our team dedicated two days to the Dougie Mac Treecycle campaign, collecting Christmas trees. After starting their mornings with a well-earned breakfast bap and a warm drink, the team hit the roads, contributing to sustainability by helping reduce waste and ensuring the trees are responsibly recycled. ♻️
