At , we’re incredibly proud to be Patrons of and to support initiatives that make a genuine difference in our communities.

As a reminder this serves to underline , some of the most powerful movements begin with a single step.

What started as a solitary walk in 2020, following the cancellation of the first planned group event, has grown into something truly remarkable. Six years later, Walk Into The Light has become a beacon of hope, bringing together individuals, businesses, charities and communities across the region.

This journey is about more than a walk. It’s about connection, resilience and reminding people that no matter how dark today may seem, brighter days lie ahead. 💡

As patrons of , and through Alisdair’s role as a trustee , we’re honoured to play a part in supporting conversations around mental health, wellbeing and community support.

✨ Your darkest days will pass. Given time, the light will shine brighter.

We can’t wait to see everyone at and continue growing this movement together.

Please join us in supporting everyone involved and sharing the message that hope matters.

💛 Never Throw In The Towel.

Big progress this week for Archie on his last day of work experience week where he has been able to have a flavour of multiple different trades. It’s been a real treat to have such young energy, it’s infectious. Of course a huge part of every Trade is not the doing, it’s the people skills and that’s communicating and getting on with all people. We can all see the potential inside every apprentice. All the best Archie, the door is wide open for you. 🌳🪄🍀⭐️👷

Exciting times ahead as young Archie joins our team for work experience! This fantastic opportunity lets him experience real work life, from daily commutes to diverse colleagues and varied tasks. Importantly, it highlights the importance of interpersonal skills. Fresh perspectives are always welcome, and who knows, we might learn from each other - after all, iron sharpens iron.

Just got a message to say my blood donation from earlier this month has been issued to Eastbourne Hospital. A perfect stranger. Someone I’ll never meet. Someone who needed exactly what I had to give.
This is what I call real life dividends — deposits into the Bank of Human Kindness. 💛
The best part? Everyone has an account. No minimum balance required. No application fees. Just a bit of your time and a willingness to show up.
If you’re able to donate, I genuinely can’t think of a better investment you’ll make this year. Register, rebook, or find a session near you that fits your schedule — it takes less time than you think and the returns? Life-changing. Literally. 🏥❤️
👉 give.blood — find your nearest session today.
Because somewhere out there, someone is waiting on exactly what you have. 🌍 google it easy !!!!!

Important good news update 🚨📰🗞️Little Benny has made it to Rome ❤️🇮🇹

Benny has officially begun the next stage of his journey—accessing life-changing CAR T-cell treatment for neuroblastoma.

This moment is bigger than words.

It’s the result of an entire community coming together—people who donated, showed up, shared his story, sent messages, and held him in their thoughts and prayers.

Every single act—seen and unseen—has helped get him here.

The first hospital visits have been tough at times, but Benny’s strength shines through… and sometimes all it takes is an ice cream to bring that smile back 🍦💙

Next step: his T-cells will be extracted and sent away for the next 4–6 weeks to be engineered to fight the cancer.

His parents said they could never have reached this point without the support around them—and that says everything.

Let’s keep going. Let’s keep standing by Benny.
