Great Ormond Street Hospital

Great Ormond Street Hospital provides world-class care to over 600 children every day. The hospital is heavily reliant upon charitable donations. As a result, they need to raise roughly £100 million each year to help give hope to seriously ill children and their families.

At Henson Crisp we believe in the outstanding work of Great Ormond Street Hospital. Therefore, a regular commitment of support is our opportunity to contribute.

Peterborough Cathedral

Peterborough Cathedral has charitable status and receives no direct funding from the state or from the local parish.  On average it costs £3,500 a day to maintain the full operation of the Cathedral throughout the year.

Peterborough Cathedral has embarked on ambitious plans to support local communities through museum tours held within the Cathedral.  This programme brings access to knowledge and learning from around the UK direct to our local community.

With our Peterborough office based only a short walk from the Cathedral, we believe in pledging regular support to ensure it can continue its work. Click here to read about our 15 year anniversary event.

The Stags, Huntingdon Rugby Club

Playing rugby at youth and junior level is a great way for children to develop a range of skills.

Firstly, participating in team sports aids emotional and physical development. Secondly, it gives an understanding of working as a team. As a result, involvement in sports can be a very positive experience for children of any age.

Offering our long-term support for the Huntingdon Stags is key to ensuring that children in our local communities continue to have access to team rugby, training and tournaments.

Macmillan Cancer Support

Macmillan Cancer Support provides support to those diagnosed with cancer and their families. They offer a variety of services from the most up-to-date information to a voice on the phone when needed the most. They ensure everyone with cancer has access to the right level of treatment and support.

The work of Macmillan Cancer Support is invaluable to those who depend on them. They are heavily reliant on donations raised through charity work. As a result, Henson Crisp strongly believes in supporting them.

As a team we work to support Macmillan Monday, with the team bringing in cakes to share at the workplace.

The YMCA Cambridgeshire & Peterborough

The YMCA Cambridgeshire & Peterborough has been at the heart of supporting positive change in the community since 1852. The focus has always been on building proactive and sustainable communities and emphasising support for young people. This support helps them to realise their full potential on their journey from dependence to independence.

The services provided offer opportunities for all young people, whether they are facing difficulties or are looking for a new direction. With programmes offered throughout Cambridgeshire, the YMCA is able to give young people access to local services in the heart of their communities.

Supporting the work of the YMCA is a further ongoing commitment of Henson Crisp.  We believe that young people should have access to the support they need at a local level, wherever and whenever they need it.

The Purfleet Trust

The Purfleet Trust was established in 1993 to provide help for single homeless people in King's Lynn and West Norfolk. Services offered include housing advice and support to help individuals maintain existing tenancies. There is also a Health and Wellbeing Centre which provides a daily hot meal and the opportunity to gain essential life skills. Having an address is one of the most important factors when helping individuals to move back into accommodation and off the streets. The centre can be used as a postal address and there is free access to both computers and the telephone.

The Purfleet Trust is reliant on charitable donations. Offering long-term support from Henson Crisp gives our commitment to ensure their good work can continue.
