Platinum recruitment are committed to supporting national charities each month to help those with life-changing and life-altering conditions. Every month we donate to a variety of charities, on an individual basis and company wide. Our staff donate their own money, which is then matched by the company. At the end of the month, a random team member is selected, and their winning charity receives a donation from the team.

This month our winner is Ann-Marie Armstrong and £250 has been donated to Julia’s House Charity in her name. Congratulations Ann-Marie!

Find out about Julia’s House Children’s Hospice

Julia’s House is a local charity dedicated to supporting the families of children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions in Dorset and Wiltshire. Many of these children require round the clock care, which has a huge impact on family life.  Parents can choose when, where and how they receive their care – at home, in the community or at one of the charity’s two hospices in Corfe Mullen and Devizes – making it a truly flexible service.

This regular respite and support, plus emergency and end-of-life care, is provided completely free to families thanks to the generosity of the local community. Julia’s House relies on public donations, fundraising and legacies for 95 per cent of the money needed to run its vital service.

The charity currently supports 166 families across Dorset and Wiltshire and the number is rising as medical and scientific advances mean more children are being born and living longer with life-limiting conditions. By 2022 the number of children needing the support of Julia’s House is expected to have increased by 40 per cent.
