Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. On Monday 10th October a team of Thakeham employees will ride 50 miles from our Head Office in Billingshurst to our Thames Valley Office in Wokingham, visiting three community businesses along the way.
At Thakeham, community is at the heart of everything we do, which is why the Plunkett Foundation are a perfect partner for us and why we are proud to support their role as community business ambassadors.
Plunkett is a UK-wide charity that supports rural
community-owned businesses. From community-owned shops, pubs and libraries, to farms, woodlands and bookshops, across the country rural communities are coming together to set up and run community-owned businesses that provide an essential service for the local area. A community-owned business is a lifeline to the people it serves. In areas where digital connectivity is unstable; transport services are limited and employment opportunities are sparse, a community-owned business is able to directly address those difficulties while also helping to tackle isolation and loneliness and promote positive wellbeing.
