As part of our annual charitable giving campaign, we recently donated to charities supporting a range of causes across the UK. 

Each of our thirteen divisions votes on a charity to support every year. This year, our donation value increased to £26,000 from £22,000 in 2022, reflecting our continued growth and desire to give back to areas of our communities which may be struggling. 

The Midlands Regional Distribution Centre (RDC), Kite Online (KOL), Kite Environmental Solutions (KES) and National Distribution Centre (NDC) along with the company’s Central Administration, Warehouse, and Specialist Divisions made Coventry based donations. They supported Coventry Haven Women’s Aid, The Trussell Trust and WNDLR Air Ambulance Service. 

Outside of Coventry, we have RDCs in the North East, Rotherham, Sittingbourne, Letchworth, Rochdale, Portsmouth, Swindon and Shredhouse in Wiltshire. These bases donated to CHUF (Children’s Heart Unit Foundation), People’s Kitchen, MND Association, Making Miracles, Demelza, Garden’s House Hospice, Jubilee House, Rochdale Children’s Moorland Home, and Wiltshire Air Ambulance respectively.

Many of the charities expressed challenges they have faced in recent years due to limited funding, staff loss and the cost-of-living crisis which is leaving more people in need of their services, making Kite’s contributions all the more important. 

Our employees are delighted to have the opportunity to effect meaningful change within aspects of our localities which may be struggling and Kite is honoured to empower this.
