Cooking up funds for Down’s Syndrome Association
Jestic Foodservice Solutions’ annual summer charity drive has raised an incredible £1,776.10 for 2024 charity partner, Down’s Syndrome Association. Held each summer at Jestic’s Paddock Wood offices in Kent, team members all do their bit to help raise as much money as possible for a staff-chosen charity. The fundraising efforts have included hamper raffles, as well as an on-site BBQ, cooked and served by the Jestic culinary team.
Jestic supports a different charity every year, chosen by the whole business to both give back and show support to a colleague or a family member who have turned to the charity in their time of need. This year’s chosen charity was the Down’s Syndrome Association and Jestic is delighted to support the charity by providing much needed funds, including a very generous donation of £750.00 from Jestic neighbours, Island Marketing,
Ben Dale, Managing Director of Jestic Foodservice Solutions comments:
“Our annual Summer Charity Drive is an event the whole business enjoys and one that means a lot to us all at Jestic. We’re privileged to play just a small role in helping support the wider work of Down’s Syndrome Association which Jestic has a personal connection to. Thank you and well done to the entire team at Jestic and Island Marketing for raising such a fantastic amount.”
