Each year, we nominate a chosen charity to support over the course of a year. Previous nominated charities include, Sheffield Mind, Sheffield Young Carers, and Sheffield Children's Hospital Charity. Plus, we'll take part in the odd ad hoc event for other great causes.
In support of our CSR policy, the Elevation board also released a brand- Volunteer Program that provides over 400 free business hours for our employees to use in community volunteering projects. The business feels this commitment is vital in giving back to the Yorkshire Region after spending the last 12 years building such a loyal customer base in the area.
The Children's Hospital Charity changes children's lives everyday.
The money raised supports specialist treatment from head to toe by funding life-saving equipment, new facilities, a comfortable environment and vital research which changes paediatric care for thousands of children from across the world.
We are incredibly proud to have raised £7,555 for CHC in 2023!

Supporting our Community – Completed Projects
The Suit Works – Clothing Drive
Elevation teamed up with The Suit Works charity in South Yorkshire, to hold a workwear clothing drive at our Rotherham office on Tuesday 7th September 2021.
We collected over 300 items of male and female donations, including suits, coats, shirts, trousers, dresses, skirts, ties, shoes, and handbags.
The clothing drive was an opportunity to collect as many workwear items as possible to support The Suit Works in their aim to help unemployed people of all ages, who want to work, but do not have the funds or means to purchase appropriate clothing for interviews.

Roundabout – Sleep Out
In November 2021, Elevation was headline sponsors of the sleepout event in conjunction with Roundabout. A great youth charity that provides shelter, support and life skills to young people aged 16-24 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
Our team braved the cold night by swapping warm beds for a sleeping bag and a hard floor. It gave our team a small insight into the challenges faced by vulnerable young people at risk of homelessness.
We raised £2,170 for Roundabout.
