Our charities
As a local company, giving back to the community is a big part of our ethos. Over the past few years, we have raised thousands of pounds for our charity partners.
At Solutions, we believe it’s important to try and make a difference, therefore, each year we decide on a ‘Charity of the Year’ to support.
We began our charity campaign in 2015, and over the past few years have managed to raise almost £20,000 for the following charities: Macmillan, Nottingham Children’s Hospital, The Little Princess and most recently, The Trussell Trust.
The charity of the year is always chosen by our Solutions employees.
Whether it is a bake sale, a sponsored bike ride, a quiz or a 50/50 draw, we fundraise for our charities however we can, even a pandemic doesn’t stop us.
