Reassured raises £8,000 for partner charity Winston’s Wish at 15-year anniversary celebration.
As Reassured celebrates 15 years in business this year, the leading life insurance broker has selected its first annual charity partner, Winston’s Wish, raising an incredible £8,000 to kick off the partnership in 2024.
The 15 year anniversary party took place at the De Vere Wokefield estate near Reading on the evening of Friday 12th of July, and included a charity raffle which saw Reassured staff winning a range of luxurious prizes in exchange for donations for Winston’s Wish.
The goal was to raise £5,000 and any amount raised would be matched by the company. Reassured is pleased to have greatly exceeded this target, with all donations totalling £8,000 by the end of the night.
Winston’s Wish is a childhood bereavement charity providing advice, support and recourses for grieving children and those who care for them. In 2023, Winston’ Wish helped over 62,000 grieving children and young people via its live chat, email, text and telephone services.
Reassured has always been passionate about charity and fundraising, conscious of our impact on the community, and this has been embedded in our company culture. In the past, many employees have supported worthy causes through food bank donations, bake sales, fitness challenges and shoe box appeals.
Therefore, this year the company launched a dedicated charity committee to spear head our fundraising events and promote our chosen partners, which also includes smaller local charities.
Phil Jeynes, Director of Corporate Strategy at Reassured, said:
Winston’s Wish was chosen as our first national charity partner as their work closely aligns with our values and ethos at Reassured.
As a leading life insurance broker, we understand that devastating impact of losing a loved one and proud to be able to help many UK families arrange financial protection in the event the worst does happen.
We look forward to working with Winston’s Wish over the next year, helping to support their incredible work supporting grieving children and their families.
Paul Moore, Director of Fundraising at Winston's Wish said:
We’re incredibly excited to be named as Reassured’s first formal charity partner as part of their special anniversary year.
There is a perfect fit between our vision and the bold ambitions of Reassured and we look forward to working together to bring hope to grieving children and young people.
