Charity & Auction
At Highbourne Group we live by our behaviours and at the heart of this is our focus on supporting our colleagues and others around us. We want to be a force for positive change in our communities and to make life better for our neighbours as well as our colleagues.
Earlier this year, we reaffirmed our commitment to supporting young people with cancer by extending our long-standing partnership with Teenage Cancer Trust for a further three years. This extension will bring our total support for the charity to 15 years, with a new fundraising target of £5 million.
Since first partnering with Teenage Cancer Trust in 2012, Highbourne Group has raised over £3.4 million through a variety of fundraising initiatives, from corporate conferences and charity skydives to sponsored head shaves, squat challenges, and even a Teenage Cancer Trust-inspired tattoo.
Looking ahead, we’ve set an ambitious goal of reaching £5 million by the end of 2027 and have an action-packed calendar of fundraising events to reach the target.
Commenting on the partnership, Dave Griggs, TCT Partnership Lead for Highbourne Group, said: “Reaching a fifteen-year partnership with Teenage Cancer Trust is something we’re incredibly proud of. It’s proof of what’s possible when colleagues unite behind a cause that truly matters. The events we’ve held this year - from fundraising challenges to the Highbourne Group Gala Dinner in 2026 - show how strong that commitment remains. Together, we’re determined to build on what we've raised so far and help Teenage Cancer Trust continue its vital work supporting young people with cancer.”
Sam Hughes-Smith, Corporate Partnership Manager, Teenage Cancer Trust, added: “Everyone at Teenage Cancer Trust is incredibly proud of the work that Highbourne Group have done since 2012. We are thrilled that they are committed to continuing their support.
“Thanks to partnerships like this, we can pay for specialist nurses, youth support teams and hospital units within the NHS to provide the very best care and support during treatment and beyond, making sure cancer doesn’t stop young people living their lives.
