You know us for our commitment to the Renovation Insurance sector, but there are three particular charities and initiatives that we are just as passionate about too.

RISE AFRICA

Rise Africa is a local charity set up by a schoolgirl from Kimbolton School which helps support the education of some the most vulnerable children in Tanzania.

Tanzania is one of the poorest countries in the world. Around 58% of the population are living on less than $1 a day, with 9 in 10 of these poor people living out in rural areas – their survival entirely dependent on the farming of their livestock and crops.

By providing these disadvantaged children (most of whom are orphans) through sponsorship, with free education and training, Rise Africa helps young people to become self-sufficient and escape the vicious cycle of poverty.

GRIEF ENCOUNTER

Grief Encounter is a UK-based charity that supports bereaved children and their families.

Having lost his own father at the age of 17, our Founder Douglas understands the importance of helping children and families through the grieving process.

When a child’s parent, sibling or significant loved one dies, their world changes forever. That’s where charities such as Grief Encounter come to these children’s aid by offering them the support they need to help them rebuild their lives.

By providing invaluable services such as E-counselling and organising family fun days, Grief Encounter helps alleviate the pain caused by the death of someone close.

THE GAME AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION TRUST

The Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust is a leading UK charity that’s been researching and developing game and wildlife management techniques for over 80 years.

The Trust believes strongly that scientific research should underpin sustainable conservation practices in the great, British countryside. By working alongside farmers, landowners and government policymakers, this charity works hard to help enhance the biodiversity of the British countryside.

It’s their research and hard work that means we’re able to enjoy a countryside rich in game and other wildlife.
