Higos Is Delighted To Announce Our New 2021/2022 Partner Charity Mind In Somerset.
Higos Partner Charity Announcement.
Each year our branch teams and our Charity Committee (The Higos Community Fund) get together to choose a Partner Charity to work closely with for two years. For 2021/2022 our partner charity will be Mind in Somerset.
We are very grateful that we are in a position to continue helping out local causes. Mind in Somerset is a fantastic charity that specialises in mental health issues of adults and young people. Mental health poses such a threat to us all in the community, especially as many facilities such as leisure, entertainment and hospitality businesses have been hit through the lockdowns. Mental health is a growing issue which deservedly is getting more recognition and attention and we hope our new partnership with Mind in Somerset encourages members of our community and our employees to seek the help they need and come out and talk about their own issues.
A few words from our new partner charity Mind in Somerset.
“We are absolutely delighted that Higos insurance has chosen us as their charity partner. Support from local businesses is incredibly important to us and even more so given the current situation. We have worked very hard through lockdown to ensure that our service not only continues but increases to meet the ever growing demand from our local community. All our peer support groups have continued with a virtual offering and our Mindline has moved to a 24/7 offering to cope with the massive increase in demand as we recognise peoples normal coping mechanisms are no longer available. As a charity this simply wouldn’t be possible without the support of the local communities we serve and the business in them.”
When it comes to supporting the local community, it has to be Higos!
