To celebrate the WISE Awards 2019, we gave each guest a £2 donation that they could give to one of three charities on the night.

Enhancing lives is at the very heart of what we do, and it was great to provide a gift which allowed everyone at the WISE awards to delight in the gift of giving. This gift was also sustainable, eradicating single use plastic and any potential packaging waste.

We were able to introduce those attending the event to three charities that we felt aligned with our commitment to enhancing lives and with the work of WISE.

The three charities were:

PLAN UK Plan International UK is a children’s charity. They strive to advance children’s rights and equality for girls all over the world.

SMART WORKS Smart Works is a UK charity that provides high quality interview clothes and interview training to unemployed women in need.

CODE YOUR FUTURE A non-profit organisation supporting refugees and disadvantaged individuals with the dream of becoming developers.

We’ve counted up the donations and will be donating:

Plan international £148
Smart works £158
Code your future £176

Thank you to everyone who took part and donated, and well done to all the deserving winners and nominees.
