On 2nd September, the Security and Resilience teams will be taking on a charity walk from our Haymarket office, past our new Thistle Street location, and up Arthur’s Seat.

We’re doing this in support of Lymphoma Action, a charity we’ve chosen because a number of our colleagues have been personally impacted by the disease. We’re proud to be raising awareness and funds for such an important cause.

Setting up page for the small zettle collection made on the day for CRUK

Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) are a charity that provides support and tries to unite people against suicide.

I first found out about CALM through a clothing brand called boys get sad too (if you work in Alderley park I'm sure you've seem me wear there merch a lot lol) who donate a portion of all sales to this important cause. This became even more important when we lost a family member to suicide and we experienced first hand the damage that caused to everyone be it family or friends.

I don't usually do this kind of thing but i really feel it is important to get this out there and drive support as much as possible to such an important cause.

Colleagues from Alderley Park and across the Royal London sites have entered the CRUK London to Amsterdam Cycle Challenge 2025 To help us raise funds and awareness of this fantastic challenge the AP team are organising an Easter Raffle
