orptel donated £2000 to the Samaritans charity in April 2020. Samaritans have been feeling the additional pressure of the Covid-19 crisis, with many calls coming in and the responsibility to continue to provide a 24/7 and year-round service was strongly felt, so they made an emergency appeal during this time. The appeal aims to fund additional projects such as recruiting former volunteers, virtual training and exploring new ways to be there for users of the Samaritans service.

Samaritans work to help those who are having difficulty coping by listening and offering advice, they prioritise making connections with those who need someone to talk to in difficult times. It is Samaritans' mission to work tirelessly to reach more people and make suicide prevention a priority.

Corptel support the work of Manchester Youth Zone and ask if our friends and colleagues would contribute towards this invaluable organisation via our TotalGiving page.

The Manchester Youth Zone is located in Harpurhey, North Manchester which is ranked as the 2nd worst ward in England for the effect of long-term deprivation on children. Many in the surrounding area are vulnerable to poor educational attainment, future worklessness and to developing antisocial or offending behaviour.

Manchester Youth Zone provides a unique safe place for young people aged from 6 – 19, up to 25 with additional needs, from across Manchester. With a wealth of sport and creative activities, MYZ currently welcomes almost 1,000 young people each week. They work to raise members aspirations and equip them with the tools to increase their confidence, build positive relationships and add something back to their own community.

We are keen to support MacMillan with their ability to provide grants for those people diagnosed while in financial difficulty. The fund is designed to help reduce money worries while people are dealing with prospect of prolonged cancer treatment.

Chris Cartledge, one of our Account Managers, decided he wanted to help. With personal experience of the amazing support MacMillan provides, he decided he wanted to raise money. Most people would run a 5k or complete a charity walk, not Chris. He came up with a massive challenge. He would use a static rowing machine to row the equivalent of Manchester to London in the 31 days of January.
