What we are doing
At Sheridan’s we know that Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year! We just couldn’t wait to deck up the festive décor (yes, at the beginning of November.) Secret Santa scheming is in full swing and we’re all thinking it’s high time for mulled wine!
Everyone knows there’s nothing like indulging in the festivities to get us in the Christmas spirit! That’s why this year Sheridan Lifts are holding a Christmas Jumper Day on the 15th December, in aid of Save the Children.
Make the world better with a sweater!
We’re donating a minimum of £2 per person to show off our fanciest and most embarrassing Christmas attire around the office (there will be photographs!) The proceeds will go to help Save the Children combat child poverty and hunger and fight for:
- Child Protection
- Children’s rights
- Children’s Health
- Our UK work for children in Britain
- Child’s Education
Save the Children
With almost a century’s work in unrelentingly fighting for children’s rights, Save the Children are a UK and Worldwide Charity.
In its early years Save the Children campaigned restlessly for donations to help when a state of famine hit Europe. The donations were given to organisations to feed, clothe and educate suffering children and adults.
The charity has been ready to fight with a fast response of aid in times of national and international malady ever since.
Save the Children have always been at the forefront of the worldwide political campaign for children’s rights. Today’s UN Convention on the Right of the Child – the global apparatus that says every child has the right to survival, protection and education is based on documents drawn up by Save the Children founders.
