Throughout 2025, our amazing employees and community came together with one shared goal: to support Molly Ollys, an incredible charity that brings comfort, support, and magical moments to children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. What started as a simple idea turned into a year filled with fundraising, teamwork, sweat, sugar, and a whole lot of heart. By the end of the year, we were proud to have raised an amazing £1,696.

Here’s how we did it…

Bake Sales That Sweetened the Cause

What’s a fundraiser without cake? Our bake sales were a huge hit, tables loaded with brownies, cookies, cupcakes, and all sorts of homemade treats. Not only did we raise money, but we also raised spirits (and maybe a few sugar levels too!).

Lucy, Sacha, and Gary Take On a 10k

One of the standout moments of the year was seeing Lucy, Sacha, and Gary lace up their running shoes and tackle the ABP Southampton 10k. Training, early mornings, aches, pains, and pure grit paid off as they crossed the finish line, not just completing the 10K, but doing it in the name of Molly Ollys. Their dedication inspired all of us and contributed a huge boost to our fundraising total.

Simon Takes to Two Wheels

While the runners hit the pavement, Simon took to the road on his bicycle. Whether it was long weekend rides or commuting extra miles to add to his total, his cycling 500k challenge became a key part of our fundraising efforts. Rain or shine, he kept pedalling for a cause close to all our hearts.

Emma’s Incredible 250,000-Step Challenge

Last but definitely not least, Emma completed an incredible 250,000-step challenge. That’s the equivalent of walking well over 100 miles! Step by step, she pushed herself throughout the year, tracking progress and raising awareness every day. Her dedication was impactful to our fundraising.

A Year to Be Proud Of

Each raffle ticket bought, each cake sold, each mile run, cycled, or walked helped us reach our final total of £1,696. More importantly, every effort, big or small, helped support the life-changing work of Molly Ollys.

This year showed us what’s possible when a community unites behind a meaningful cause. We’re incredibly proud of what we achieved together, and grateful to everyone who donated, participated, or cheered us on.

Final words

Molly Ollys have also shared their feedback on the impact of our fundraising efforts and what it has meant to them:

‘We are very grateful for all your support over the past year and the money raised will certainly make a difference to children who are facing very challenging circumstances. Thank you for help raising both funds and awareness.’
