Exertis Raises £125,000 for Mental Health UK, Shifts Focus to Local Charities for FY25

Exertis announced it has raised £125,000 for Mental Health UK, marking the conclusion of its FY24 charity partnership. 

The funds raised through various employee-led initiatives will be used to support the charity’s mission to improve mental health awareness and support services.

Exertis has decided to change its charitable approach for the upcoming financial year. Instead of supporting one national charity, the company’s employees voted to select eight local charities for fundraising support. These organisations include six hospices, a homeless charity, and a teenage cancer charity. The full list of beneficiaries includes St Michael’s Hospice in Basingstoke, East Lancashire Hospice in Burnley, Overgate Hospice in Elland, St Clare Hospice in Harlow, Prospect Hospice for Hypertec, Teens Unite for MTR, The Big Issue in Snetterton, and DougieMac in Stoke.

Michaela DeGale, Charity and Volunteering Lead at Exertis UK explained the decision to support multiple local charities: “We are committed to supporting the local communities around our offices in the UK. This year, we are excited to be supporting smaller, local charities through a variety of fundraising efforts. 

“Our employees are dedicated to finding innovative ways to fundraise and volunteer, and we believe that by working together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of those around us.”

Exertis’s fundraising efforts for Mental Health UK in the past year included a wide range of activities, from golf days and bake sales to raffles, tech sales, and dress-down days. These creative approaches not only raised significant funds but also helped to engage employees in the cause.

Rob Harding, Partnerships Manager at Mental Health UK, expressed his gratitude to Exertis, saying, “We really cannot thank the people of Exertis enough for their dedication, passion, and desire to improve the lives of people affected by poor mental health. Thank you so much for having been our charity partner and for continuing to make mental health a priority within Exertis.”
