Combining business with community care: Cawleys team volunteers at Keech Hospice
At Cawleys, we believe that sustainability extends beyond the environment and it’s about people, places, and partnerships too. Earlier this month, members of our Sales, Account Management and Marketing teams came together for a very special Q3 round-up meeting hosted at Keech.
We were delighted to use the hospice’s excellent meeting facilities for our morning sessions, before rolling up our sleeves in the afternoon to give something back. After lunch, the team swapped spreadsheets for spades and logistics for leaves, heading outdoors to help clear and tidy the garden paths.
With the seasons changing, fallen leaves can make the pathways slippery, especially for residents and visitors using wheelchairs and so our volunteers worked together to make the outdoor spaces safer and more enjoyable for everyone.
In addition to our hands-on help, our Milton Keynes depot also donated a selection of pre-loved hanging baskets, pots, and garden chairs reflecting our ongoing commitment to reuse and sustainability.
A few words from Keech Hospice.
“We had the pleasure of welcoming the Cawleys Waste and Resource Management team who arrived bright and early and made great use of our meeting facilities. After lunch they got stuck in, helping us rejuvenate our garden pathways and transforming the outdoor spaces for our residents and their visitors.
Partnerships like these highlight the power of teamwork and we’re incredibly grateful for their hands-on support and hard work……a massive thank you to Cawleys for combining business with community care!” Kate Gooden, Corporate Fundraiser, Keech Hospice.
Continuing a valued partnership
“Cawleys has proudly supported Keech Hospice for many years through our regular collection services, sponsorship events, and Christmas tree recycling initiatives. This volunteering day was another great way to strengthen our partnership and show our appreciation for the incredible work Keech does for the community.” Hannah Marshall, Marketing Manager - Cawleys
We’re proud to continue supporting Keech and look forward to many more opportunities to combine our environmental mission with social good.
