Audley Group, a provider of luxury retirement villages in the UK, has raised over £30,000 for charity in 2019.
Over the past 10 months staff, owners and members of the local community have taken part in numerous events, from bake offs to superhero dress up days, to raise money for some incredible causes. Charities that are close to many people’s hearts at Audley including The Dove Ward, part of Great Western Hospitals NHS trust, the British Heart Foundation and Macmillan Cancer Support to name a few.
The most recent event saw staff from across Audley Group take part in the Blenheim Palace charity 10km run on Sunday 29 September and raise an amazing £5000 for the British Heart Foundation.
The team, which included managing director of operations Paul Morgan, made their way around the beautiful grounds, over the hills and through the gardens, finishing their journey outside the historic palace. All team members finished with impressive times and were greeted by fellow staff, including CEO Nick Sanderson at the finish line, to toast their success.
Audley Group owns a portfolio of nineteen villages across the country. The Group has two brands: Audley Villages, founded in 1991 and aimed at the luxury end of the market, and Mayfield Villages, a proposition with broader appeal.
Paul Morgan, managing director operations at Audley Group says: “Be it baking a cake or setting a new PB at the Blenheim Palace 10km our owners, staff and supporters have gone above and beyond this year raising a fantastic amount for charity.
“We work in such a rewarding industry, meet inspirational people every day and this is why we are so proud to give something back and support the incredible work that charities do across the country. And, we aren’t done yet. We have plenty more events planned for the rest of year and I know the team are already looking forward to the next one.”
