At The One Point, we believe in making a positive impact locally and globally. Over the past few weeks, we’ve been busy supporting incredible causes, connecting with our community, and sharing knowledge. Here a look at what we’ve been up to:
Supporting The Park Lane Foundation Charity Dinner
We were proud to attend the Park Lane Foundation Charity Dinner at Headingly Stadium alongside our friends from We Are Wakefield and St George’s Crypt. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to The Park Lane Group for their exceptional hospitality. It was an inspiring evening dedicated to making a difference.
Donating to the Gambian Schools Trust
Education changes lives, and we’re thrilled to support the Gambian Schools Trust by donating 30 mobile phones and 20 laptops. Their volunteer, David Wright, will travel to Gambia in February to distribute these alongside desks, chairs, books, and other essentials. We’re proud to play a part in this incredible initiative.
Celebrating Excellence at the Wakefield Business Awards
Our Cyber Lead, Rob Pinder, had the honor of presenting the Medium/Large Business of the Year Award at the Wakefield Business Awards. Congratulations to Thurston’s Group and all the nominees and winners who make our region thrive. It was a fantastic evening celebrating innovation and success.
Packing Shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child
Christmas is about giving, and our team packed 100 shoeboxes for the Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child Appeal. Each box was filled with toys, stationery, and essentials to bring joy to children this festive season. Thank you to everyone at TOP who got involved!
Spreading Cheer with The Hey Smile Foundation
As part of the HEY Smile Foundation Christmas Appeal, we donated over 100 chocolate selection boxes to Doreen’s Hull. These will help create hampers for children in the HU7 area, ensuring every child receives a gift this Christmas. We’re proud to support local initiatives that make a real difference.
