Talasey accomplishes its charity fundraising goals for the year, celebrating its 20 years supplying the UK landscaping sector.

The Scunthorpe-based company already supports two charities, Perennial and Band of Builders. However, this year, the team aimed to expand their efforts to benefit national, trade industry, and local charities.

Charities include, The Salvation Army, Children In Need, the Maddie Rose Charity, Movember and Forge, a local homeless charity.

Talasey raised nearly £7,500 for its chosen charities and contributed further by donating products to charity landscaping projects, as well as toys for a Christmas appeal.

“As part of our celebrations, we wanted to go above and beyond for our existing charitable partnerships and give something back to other good causes as well. We also wanted to devise a range of activities so that there was something for everyone to get involved in – so that everyone at Talasey felt that they were all pulling together”, says Talsey’s marketing director, Rebecca Hughes.

Team activities have included a team from Talasey taking part in Essex-London Bike Ride, organising collections for the foodbank for a local homeless shelter, to giving up alcohol for a month during Dry January.

A team from Talasey also took part in the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge and another team took part in Dragon Boat racing organised by Jewson. The company also supported a local girls’ football team, the Epworth Colts.

“There is a genuine sense of accomplishment and a feel-good factor running right through the Talasey team after what has been an amazing year on so many fronts for the business.’”
