December Company Updates: A Time of Giving

15/12/25, 14:00

As the festive season arrives, December has been a wonderful time for reflection, celebration, and giving back. This month, we’re proud to share how our team has come together to support our local community while celebrating another successful year.


Supporting Portsmouth City Council’s Christmas Appeal


This Christmas, Portsmouth City Council is once again supporting some of the city’s most vulnerable individuals, and we were delighted to be involved. The council invited its valued suppliers, including us, to help deliver even greater social value across the city.


This year’s appeal supports six incredible local organisations:

  • City of Sanctuary UK

  • URBOND

  • The Parenting Network

  • Buckland Soup Kitchen

  • Spark Community Space

  • Seekers Create C.I.C.

We were proud to donate gifts to the appeal, helping to ensure that everyone in Portsmouth has something special to open this Christmas. 


Christmas Jumper Day for Save the Children UK


Alongside the appeal, our team also joined in with Christmas Jumper Day, raising funds and awareness for Save the Children. Festive knits were on full display, and it was fantastic to see everyone getting involved for such an important cause.


Celebrating Together

The holiday spirit continued on Friday evening as our team came together for our annual Christmas party at The Limewood Hotel in the New Forest. It was a brilliant evening to celebrate the achievements of the past year, thank our colleagues for their hard work, and look ahead to all the exciting opportunities to come.


Holiday Closure Dates

Please note our festive opening hours:

  • Sites will close on Friday 19th December 25

  • Offices will close on Monday 22nd December 25

  • We will reopen on Monday 5th January 26

As we wrap up for the year, we’d like to thank our clients, partners, and colleagues for their continued support. Here’s to celebrating an incredible year and looking forward to an exciting year ahead. 


Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
