This Easter, our amazing teams have been spreading a little joy in communities all across the UK 💛

From collecting and donating Easter eggs to supporting hospices, charities, and families in need, the generosity has been incredible.

Across our depots, we’ve seen:
🥚 Hundreds of eggs donated to local hospices and charities
🥚 350 eggs collected in Newport as part of a wider appeal delivering over 1,600 eggs across South Wales
🥚 142 eggs donated in Newton Aycliffe
🥚 Nearly 100 eggs gathered by our Somerset team
🥚 70 eggs donated in Norfolk to support children and young people

Plus so many more contributions from teams in Leicester, Telford, Kent, Brighouse, BNSSG, BLMK, Ipswich and beyond.

It’s been especially heartwarming to see not just colleagues, but their families getting involved too.

A massive thank you to everyone who donated and supported these efforts – you’ve helped make Easter a little brighter for so many people 🐣
