Our Community

Respectful of our longstanding contribution to the region, we are committed to continuing to support our community through fundraising, volunteering and other means.

In recent years, Blandy & Blandy is proud to have donated close to £100,000 to local charities, some of which are highlighted below.

We are delighted to currently be working with two fantastic organisations, Babies in Buscot Support (BIBS) and The Royal Berks Charity. Both play a key role supporting the NHS in our region.

                  league-of-friends

Whilst our “adopted” charities, chosen by colleagues, remain our primary focus, we also seek to support other local causes and events throughout the year where possible. Examples of this include sponsoring The Kenton Theatre and the Henley Arts Trail in Henley-on-Thames, participating in the Reading Pancake Race and the Reading Legal Walk and as a partner and member of Ethical Reading.

Members of our team give their time in other ways too, as trustees and governors, in support of university and school careers fairs, and through volunteering. Most recently, examples have ranged from acting as a Young Enterprise mentor to delivering food bank donations to the community.

For over 15 years, we have also supported Cancer Research UK, through the charity’s free Will scheme. Alongside our clients, we have helped to raise nearly £1.5 million, through pledges and donations, resulting in our firm being presented with a gold award for fundraising in 2019.
