Christmas 2023 at Integrity365

Firstly, we would like to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for being part of the Integrity365 family, and we look forward to advising you throughout 2024 and beyond.

Sustainability is an important focus for us and we want to do our best to help address the issues that really matter to our clients. Therefore, this Christmas in order to take steps in the right direction, we have made a donation to charity rather than sending out physical cards.

We are running a number of charitable initiatives within the business to benefit the areas surrounding our offices which you can read more about below:

The Trussell Trust support a nationwide network of food banks, including areas local to our offices, and together they provide emergency food and support to people locked in poverty and campaign for change to end the need for food banks in the UK.

In the UK, more than 14 million people are living in poverty – including 4.5 million children. The Trussell Trust supports more than 1,300 food bank centres in the UK to provide a minimum of three days nutritionally balanced emergency food to people who have been referred in crisis, as well as support to help people resolve the crises they face. Between April 2022 and March 2023, food banks in our network provided almost 3 million food supplies to people in crisis, a 37% increase from the previous year.

Due to the cost of living crisis driving demand, we know that food banks need our help more than ever, therefore the Integrity365 team are also supporting collections for The Trussell Trust this year.

The One Can Trust are a local charity, started in 2011 and based in Bucks, close to our High Wycombe office. They work with local organisations, including Bucks Council, housing associations and the Department for Work and Pensions, to provide weekly food parcels to those in need, including vulnerable families and individuals living locally. Right now they need support more than ever, with the cost of living crisis driving demand for their services.

Donations are sorted and packed by a team of volunteers ready for the food parcels to be distributed directly to those in need via front-line referral agencies e.g. social workers, or through their network of Hubs. Each standard food parcel provides three meals a day for one person for four days, their enhanced parcels provide 3 meals per day per person for a week.

This year our offices will be closed during the festive season from 1.00 pm on Friday 22nd December, and reopening on Tuesday 2nd January 2024.

Rest assured, should you have an urgent query during this time, we will still be available to assist. Please contact your adviser directly by email, or for any urgent enquiries please get in touch at enquiries@integrity365.co.uk and we will be happy to help.

We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and hope you have a very enjoyable festive break.
