Staff at Utopia Group, based in Bilston, West Midlands, entered the Christmas spirit with their usual enthusiasm in late December, donning festive jumpers in style and hosting a Christmas Raffle. These two charity events marked the end of another successful year of active fundraising by Utopia employees.
At Christmas, the money raised was donated to The Mel Evans MBE Foundation, a local charity nominated by an employee and committed to supporting research into Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
Mindful of local families facing hardship, Utopia Group also continues to support The Excel Foodbank in Bilston, delivering a significant haul of donated groceries in the run-up to Christmas to help those in need across the local community.
Throughout the year, employees also took part in the annual Utopia charity walk, held in July, which raised over £1,000 for MIND and the company’s own Liz Green Fund. The fund was created in memory of one of Utopia’s founding directors and supports cancer charities and local community initiatives.
October saw staff dressing up once again for Wear It Pink Day, raising a further £100 for Breast Cancer Now as part of Utopia’s ongoing commitment to national cancer awareness campaigns.
Helen Clark, Head of marketing at Utopia Group, commented:“As part of our ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility commitment, we are proud to continue to support national cancer charities including Cancer Research UK and Macmillan Cancer Support, alongside local charities that are close to our employees’ hearts. Cancer charities are particularly dear to us, but we encourage all employees to suggest local worthy causes, enabling us to support a wide range of initiatives that matter most to our people and our local community.”
