Story

🌟Hey, everyone! Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page🌟

I'm gearing up for a challenge as I swap my business attire for some tough adventure gear to embark on a 10-day motorbike trek across the demanding terrains of the ArabianPeninsula! 🌵🏍️ riding Dubai to Mucat in Oman!

This isn’t just a ride; it’s an endurance test that I’m undertaking to raise £15,000 for WeMindTheGap’s ‘We Grow’ programme, which is dedicated to transforming the lives of young people in our community.

Having witnessed the profound impact this charity has, especially through employer partnership with Platts Agriculture Ltd, I have seen firsthand how community-minded employer partners can make a real difference. You have the power to make impact on your own doorstep, becoming a vital part of a supportive community that helps young people succeed.

From providing work placements and fabulous role models to offering sponsorship, the opportunities employer partners create can change lives.

For this reason, I encourage other businesses like Platts to join me on this mission.

Your sponsorship will directly fund a young person (a Gappie) in overcoming barriers in education and employment, giving them the chance to build a brighter future.

Your support will help contribute towards the "We Grow”

programme: https://wemindthegap.org.uk/we-grow/.

This is a 12-month programme that includes six-months of employment, comprising of five different work placements, life coaching, new skills, and experiences, followed by six-months of dedicated support. All delivered with proud support, love, and care.

In today’s ever-evolving world, it’s more important than ever to invest in the future of our community and its young people. By getting involved in life-changing programmes like WeMindTheGap’s ‘We Grow’ initiative, we can create meaningful opportunities for the next generation to thrive.

Supporting this cause not only champions the development of our youth but also positions your business as a leader in social responsibility. When you align your brand with efforts that empower others, you enhance your reputation and foster loyalty among customers who value corporate citizenship.

Together, we can make a profound impact and inspire a culture of support, showcasing that our businesses are committed to uplifting those around us. Let’s unite to pave the way for future leaders while shining a spotlight on our dedication to community growth and positive change!
