100 Years Of Enriching Lives

Anna Blackburn, Managing Director & Mark Adlestone, Chairman

Our purpose is to enrich lives, which simply means making a positive difference to the world we live in

“One of the ways we enrich lives is through our charity work. We are very proud to be able to support over 250 charities every year and to give our people the opportunity to support the causes close to their hearts.”

– Anna Blackburn, Managing Director and Mark Adlestone, Chairman

We’re very proud to say that since the year 2000 we have donated £13 million to over 750 charities.

Every year, our people support over 250 charities

Our colleagues are also given company time – two days per year - to volunteer in their own local communities and help a charity of their choice.

Last year our colleagues raised over £45,000 for charity and we match funded every single penny! All of our teams are also given a donation of £100 to give to a local charity of their choice every year.

We received the first ever HM Government ‘Diamond Award’ for Payroll Giving in 2018

After our sixth consecutive year as a Platinum Award Winner for our Payroll Giving, last year we received the first ever ‘Diamond Quality Award’ which recognises companies that have more than 30% of their people giving to charity through their pay.

45% of Beaverbrooks colleagues give to charities closest to their hearts every month straight from their pay - the national average is 6%, so we’re extremely proud of our people!

We have sponsored the Blackpool 10k Fun Run every year since it began in 1982

In 1982, our former Chairman Andrew Brown, who is on the board of directors and still very much involved with Beaverbrooks, founded the Beaverbrooks Blackpool 10k Fun Run and we’ve sponsored it ever since.

In the year 2000, we set up our very own charity The Beaverbrooks Charitable Trust. We donate 20 percent of post-tax profits to the trust every year.
