‘Tis the season of giving and CTM are supporting the Trussell Trust by collecting food/toiletries for Tamworth foodbank, with drop offs scheduled in December and January.

Tinned fruit

Toilet rolls
UHT milk
Microwave rice
Small jars of coffee
Custard

For anyone wishing to donate money as well as food, they can follow this link and donate directly through the Trussell Trust website, it’s an excellent cause – albeit one we wish wasn’t necessary.
We have also gathered up all our old tech and we will be distributing the items that we can to charities who allocate items to people who need them. Anything that cannot be donated will be sold and the money donated to charities of our choice.
As part of a Tracsis group-wide policy, each employee can also use two working days a year to volunteer during work hours. We are currently looking into how we can use these as a team to maximise impact.
Follow us on all social media channels to stay informed, as we look to provide updates throughout 2023 on what we do and the channels for others to help.
