Our Give Back draw
Through the year we draw the name of one member of our team, and that person chooses a charity or cause for the practice to support. The idea behind the draw was that the practice should support what matters to our team. There is no theme and no shortlist. The donation goes out with a letter from the team. Below are the organisations our team has chosen since March 2025, newest first, with a link to each one.
