In 2022, the TwentyFour Charitable Foundation was incorporated.
The object of the Charity is to make grants to advance charitable purposes for the public benefit, the Charity will choose a focus area on an annual basis and the focus for the current year (2023) is the advancement of education and mental health.
Through the focus areas, the Charity decided to support the following charities:
Debate Mate is an extraordinary charity that equips students from disadvantaged backgrounds with essential skills, confidence, and critical thinking abilities. They do this by training university students to run debate workshops in schools.
Grief Encounter is an organisation that provides support to children and young people who have experienced the loss of a loved one. They do this by providing a way through the anxiety, fear and isolation caused by grief, offering a variety of services that can work for different people.
The J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge is the world’s largest corporate running event.
We were proud to participate in this year’s event in July.
A number of our employees joined in the 5.6k run around Battersea Park, well done to them for training hard before the event and taking part while fundraising for our chosen charities.
The Three Peaks Challenge is a monumental test of physical and mental endurance. It involves conquering the highest peaks in Scotland, England, and Wales – in just 24 hours. The total walking distance is 23 miles (37km) and the total ascent is 3064 metres (10,052ft).
The three mountains are:
Snowdon, in Wales (1085m)
Scafell Pike, in England (978m)
Ben Nevis, in Scotland (1345m)
Through grit and determination, a number of our employees successfully took on this challenge in September 2023 in order to raise funds for our two chosen charities. Even though this was super challenging, they are already thinking of the 2024 challenge.
