21st Oct 2021. Leasing World and Hitachi Capital Business Finance - FareShare

As well as the networking and the recognition of excellence, our Gold Awards is also about raising money for a worthy cause. This year we nominated FareShare.

FareShare explains that that by collecting food that would otherwise go to waste and redistributing it to charity and community groups, the charity creates approximately £50.9 million of social-economic impact each year. This is made up of £6.9 million in social value to the beneficiaries themselves and £44 million in savings to the State (i.e. to the NHS, the criminal justice system, to schools and social care).

We’d like to extend our big thanks to raffle prize sponsors Allica Bank, Shire Leasing, Simply, LTi, Walbrook, Haydock Finance, Aldermore, United Trust Bank, Liberty Leasing, and Wesleyan.

We’re also grateful to Cordoba Rewards for putting in the work to source and send the raffle prizes on a complimentary basis.

Everyone together on the night raised over £6,750 with Hitachi Capital's uplift for FareShare this year, and we’ll update the total sum right here as soon as the final figure is in!
