Change is possible with determination, time and persistence

Tomorrow is the International Day of Charity. Charities are the lifeblood of hope for countless people. But today, these organisations are facing unprecedented challenges. The economic downturn has hit hard, stretching resources thin and putting vital services at risk. Now, more than ever, our support is crucial. Charity isn’t just about giving money; it’s about giving hope, time, and strength to those who need it most. Let’s stand together and ensure that no one is left behind. Your generosity can make a world of difference. Let’s support, uplift, and empower our communities to weather this storm together. #InternationalDayOfCharity #SupportCharity #GiveBack

Today is the International Day of Charity – a fantastic opportunity to recognise the amazing work carried out by charitable organisations around the world, and to make a donation if you can. We know there are lots of charities to choose from, but here’s why we’d love you to choose RAPAID: 👉 A casualty can tragically bleed to death within just three to five minutes, often before the emergency services have time to arrive. By equipping cabs with life-saving bandages, RAPAID empowers ordinary people to flag down the vital resources they need to #stopthebleed within those first, critical minutes following an injury. 👉 RAPAID's focus is on stopping the bleed. Your funding helps us extend our mission far and wide, ensuring that emergency bandage kits are accessible in a variety of public places – from schools and taxis to workplaces and other venues. By supporting RAPAID, you're contributing to building a resilient community where people are equipped to help each other in times of crisis. Together, we’re creating a safer UK, one kit at a time. To donate, visit: https://lnkd.in/e8npec3t #InternationalDayOfCharity #RAPAID #Charity

You know how to make a difference Briggs Equipment UK Ltd! That’s why the NSPCC wants to become your next charity partner. By working together, we can make a real difference by raising the vital funds needed to stop child abuse, which half a million children in the UK suffer each year. Just imagine, your support could help enable the NSPCC to answer the calls made to Childline - one child calls us every 45 seconds! These calls really do make a difference to the children who call us. What we ask of the team at Briggs Equipment UK, is that you vote for the NSPCC to be your charity of the year, resulting in you leaving a legacy for children in the UK. You can support the NSPCC too by sharing this post with your Briggs Equipment UK colleagues and contacts. Thanks. #MakeADifference #CharityOfTheYear #NSPCC

World Suicide Prevention Day serves as a powerful reminder of the urgent need to make suicide awareness, prevention, and support an integral part of your workplace's mental health strategy. It’s deeply concerning that fewer employees feel their workplace has a strategy in place compared to last year. Now, more than ever, it’s essential to show that support is available. #WSPD24 #SuicidePrevention #WorkplaceWellbeing #MentalHealthSupport

The word of the day is ‘willanthropy’: the act of leaving a gift, however small, to a charity in your will.
