Adams Harrison Makes Donation To Saffron Walden Charity In Lieu Of Sending Christmas Cards

/in /by

The Partners at Adams Harrison have, for a number of years, donated to good causes at Christmas in lieu of sending Christmas cards. This helps the environment by reducing paper usage and waste, and staff are asked to make suggestions as to which local good cause should receive a donation, and a good cause local to each office is chosen.

For December 2021 Café Cornell was chosen to be the recipient of a £200 donation from the Saffron Walden office.

Staff and helpers visited the Adams Harrison office on Wednesday 13 January to receive the cheque.

Practice Manager, Louise Taghi, said

We take our community and social responsibilities very seriously and for a number of years we have made donations to local good causes in lieu of sending Christmas cards. We are conscious of the negative environmental impact of sending Christmas cards and we used the money saved to donate to a good cause. Café Cornell has been operating at Cornell Court in Saffron Walden since May 2021 for residents and general public and also offers a work-based training scheme which is focused on enabling individuals facing challenges and barriers to work to build confidence and to work towards formal qualifications. We were delighted to welcome trainees, staff and volunteers to our ‘covid-safe’ space in our car park on Wednesday so that we could present them with a cheque for £200.

 

Charity Donations Instead of Christmas Cards

/in /by

The partners of Adams Harrison have decided that in lieu of sending corporate Christmas cards they will be donating the money normally spent to three local charities  – REACH Haverhill; The John Huntingdon’s Charity in Sawston and Café Cornell in Saffron Walden. In addition to supporting local charities this is also incorporating the firm’s commitment to reduce it’s environmental impact. If you wish to donate to any of these great charities please click on one of the images below to go directly to their website.
