Day 5 - Fundraising and Volunteering
Fundraising and volunteering is all about partnerships and we are so fortunate that so many of our corporate partners and customers want to support us beyond buying Change Please Coffee.
On Friday the Change Please team got involved in our own fundraising activity, 10 Miles for Change. With the average rough sleeper walking 10 miles a day we wanted to put this into perspective to raise awareness around the critical issues those experiencing homelessness face every day. We walked from our Training Academy in Peckham (South London) to our Training Academy in Regents Place (North London), documenting the walk as we passed some of London’s most iconic buildings.
Whilst on the walk we reflected on the incredible fundraising activates our partners get involved with, from the Sponsored Abseil at Twickenham Stadium (@RFU) to local fundraising by partners such as David Lloyd gyms who put on a number of fundraising events across the country.
"David Lloyd Clubs has been committed to supporting Change Please since 2020. We are supper passionate about what Change Please provide and do, to make a difference in the world. Providing Change Please coffee in all of our UK clubs is not the only thing we do to support Change Please, we also fundraised and provide employment opportunities for the Change Please family. David Lloyd Clubs would like to thank everyone at Change Please for the difference that they make to people in the community every single day”. - Luke Freer, Head of Community
