Hendy Foundation has confirmed that 12 small charities across the south coast will benefit from its latest round of funding, bringing the Foundation’s total charitable commitments in 2025 to over £61,000.
November marks the seventh anniversary of the founding of Hendy Foundation, a moment celebrated with an online auction that raised a further £3000. Prizes included hospitality tickets for the England v India IT20 and matchday tickets for AFC Bournemouth v Arsenal.
Paul Hendy, CEO of Hendy Group, said: “Despite the challenging economic climate in 2025, it has been another incredible year of fundraising for the Foundation, and we are grateful to each and every donor for the support given, which has allowed us to help 50 incredible charities.
“Hendy Foundation would not be able to run without the support of our customers, colleagues and supporters. It just goes to show that when we come together, we can achieve great things, and it’s inspiring to see the positive difference the Hendy Foundation can make to local communities.”
The charities selected to benefit from the new Hendy Foundation funds are Children and Families in Grief (Devon), Stepping Stones (Devon), Blandford Scouts (Dorset), Harlequin Care (Dorset), Baby Necessities (Hampshire), Solent Rescue (Hampshire), Winchester Gold (Hampshire), and Citizens Advice Bureau Reigate & Banstead (Surrey).
Four charities in Sussex have been selected – My Sister’s House (West Sussex), Baby Bank and Beyond (East Sussex), Sussex Search and Rescue (East Sussex), and The Good Company People (East Sussex).
Since its creation in 2018, Hendy Foundation has donated almost £450,000 to grassroots charities across the south coast.
