Each year, Lansons supports a charity chosen by our colleagues, donating one per cent of profits alongside fundraising throughout the year.

In 2023, our charity of the year is a leading UK charity funding research to improve the lives of people living with type 1 diabetes - Breakthrough T1D.

Breakthrough T1D (formerly'JDRF') supports work into treatments and technologies that help improve care for those affected by the condition.

Throughout the year, colleagues across Lansons got involved in a wide range of fundraising activities in support of Breakthrough T1D. From firm-wide initiatives such as the Lansons Lotto, bake-offs and sweepstakes, to seasonal favourites including our Christmas Advent Calendar, there was no shortage of enthusiasm. These efforts were supported by our volunteer charity committee and colleagues across the business.

A big thank you to everyone who took part, donated or helped organise events. We could not have done this without your time, energy and generosity.

As we said goodbye for now to this charity, colleagues have recently voted for our next charity partner. Delighted to annouce our charity of the year for 2024 will be Mental Health Research UK. More on that very soon. But for now, huge thank you all round.
