Integrated security manufacturer, TDSi, is proud to announce that it will again be supporting Dorset-based children’s hospice Julia’s House in 2019. The announcement follows a programme of successful activities last year which included a ‘Change for Change’ collection day, a Halloween ‘Bake Off’ event, participation in the gruelling Tough Mudder and ‘Christmas Jumper Day’.
Francesca Meyrick, Marketing Manager at TDSi commented, “Julia’s House holds a special place in the hearts of the TDSi team. Located not far from our Head Office in Poole, the charity’s hospice supports children with life-limiting illnesses and their families. We have been supporting the charity through fundraising initiatives for a number of years now and 2018 was no different – with the Tough Mudder event alone raising £1,200 for this wonderful cause.”
Importance of charity for children and families
Members of the TDSi team recently visited the hospice centre in Corfe Mullen, Dorset to see how the money raised is helping children and their families. Francesca elaborated, “It was great to see the amazing facilities and to understand how vital this charity is to those that rely upon its services. Those of us that visited the facility were quite overcome by the amazing work the charity carries out on a daily basis for people that desperately need its support.”
Visiting Julia’s House in person has also galvanised the TDSi into repeating its support again for 2019, as Francesca added, “It was also a real eye-opener with regards to the costs involved and just how important it is to show continued support to the charity, which is why we have chosen to focus our efforts again for 2019. We are all excited to be planning and organising a fresh set of fundraising activities to continue our ongoing support.”
