Colleagues at Baxi Heating, in both the UK and Ireland, baked, raffled, ran, cycled, dressed up, washed cars, held golf days and even held a circus to raise over £60,000 for Alzheimer’s Society. In addition to raising money for this very worthwhile cause, many colleagues also became Dementia Friends, learning about dementia so they could help to raise awareness of the condition, while Baxi customer support engineers received training so that they could recognise if a customer had dementia.
Hayley Woodyatt, Senior Regional Corporate Partnerships Executive, Alzheimer’s Society, said: “We’ve had a fantastic time working in partnership with the team at Baxi Heating over the past two years and we have been overwhelmed at the level of support they have given us. Their dedication and enthusiasm has not only resulted in them raising a phenomenal £63,961 for Alzheimer’s Society, but they have also taken great efforts to raise awareness of dementia and our work, which is invaluable.
The company is now raising funds for the Baxi Heating Charitable Trust to help organisations in the communities in which the company operates. Details can be found on the website: https://www.baxiheating.co.uk/charitable-trust
