Taylor Wimpey<\/a> has been named Corporate Patron of the Month for January, in recognition of their generous donations, incredible support of CRASH\u2019s washbag initiative and donation of oven to Emmaus Merseyside. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Taylor Wimpey have gone above and beyond to support CRASH, with their amazing donation of washbag items across 22 business units last Christmas, alongside a staff survey donation and gifted oven to homelessness charity Emmaus Merseyside \u2013 all of which has made a huge difference in the lives of people experiencing homelessness.<\/p>\n

CRASH\u2019s washbag initiative aims to support homelessness charities and hospices with essential toiletry items \u2013 by pairing our Corporate Patrons with charities local to them so that they can create and donate bags for the people each charity supports at Christmas. Taylor Wimpey supported homelessness charities across their 22 business units with a total of 3,158 washbags worth an incredible \u00a363,160; employees spent weeks collating items such as soap, toothbrushes, socks and hand cream \u2013 putting together bags which made a difference in the lives of people experiencing homelessness. CRASH is so grateful for Taylor Wimpey’s amazing support through this initiative; we hope that colleagues enjoyed creating the washbags and are proud of the incredible result. These bags were donated to local homelessness charities such as Kairos Community Trust<\/a> in South London, St Petrock’s<\/a> in Exeter, Emmaus Merseyside<\/a> and Edinburgh Cyrenians<\/a>. Kenward Trust<\/a> in Kent received over 300 washbags from Taylor Wimpey \u2013 dropped off by Santa and the Grinch!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
