Story
In 2014 our founding Partner, Stuart Forsdike, chose to make The Papworth Trust our charity partner – not just because he is passionate about their cause, but also because 100% of the money raised goes directly towards the charity. More specifically, the funds go to the Papworth Basildon Centre, which is local to our head office.
In the nine years The Papworth Trust has been our charity partner, we have raised over £14,500 for them through marathons, cycle rides, golf days and all sorts of staff events. Now our aim is to raise £10,000 in 2024 to mark the 10 years of our partnership with the Trust.
We have scheduled our PCS Legal Annual Charity Golf Day, Climbing Snowdon, A Triathlon, The Cambridge Half Marathon, The London Big Half Marathon, Ride London and Swimming the Serpentine all in 2024.
The Papworth Trust supports adults with physical disabilities, learning difficulties, and those with profound and complex needs, to live as independently as possible. Their mission is to provide disabled people with equality, choice and independence.
We visit the Basildon centre regularly, and it is astounding to see the real impact and differences the money we raise makes to the everyday lives of their customers. The £10,000 will help them towards building an Independent Living Unit at the centre, enabling customers to learn how to provide for themselves in every aspect of their home life, which will be an essential way of helping them achieve independence.
Thank you for all your support as we head towards this £10k goal!
