Burchell Edwards helps to raise almost £70,000 for Mind in 2022

Burchell Edwards estate agency is pleased to announce that it helped to raise almost £70,000 for Mind in 2022, as part of its parent company Connells Group’s partnership with the mental health charity.

Burchell Edwards contributed with fundraising endeavours over the course of the year including colleague challenges such as golf days, marathons, and a Connells Group fundraising initative to mark World Mental Health Day in October, which raised in excess of £12,000 for the cause.

“We are extremely proud to have raised another significant amount for Mind in the second year of our partnership”, says David Plumtree, Connells Group Estate Agency Chief Executive. “Thank you to everyone who took part, organised, and supported all our charity efforts throughout the year. It has been great to see all our colleagues come together for this great cause and, we look forward to another year of supporting Mind and the vitally important work they do.”

Charlotte Porter, Head of Corporate Partnerships at Mind said: “We are so thankful to Connells Group for their fundraising efforts over the last year and their continued support throughout their partnership with us.

“The pandemic has taken a toll on the nation’s mental health, and the cost-of-living crisis is only making things worse. The money raised by Connells Group will help us to support the one in four of us who experience a mental health problem every year through funding our Mind Infoline, information and advice services, and campaigning activities”
