Supporting local charities

Throughout 2023, our dedicated North East team organised and participated in a range of fundraising events and activities to support the Newcastle-based charities. Events included a lively race night, tombola, and prize raffles, showcasing the commitment of our North East team to contributing to the community.

The fundraising efforts extended beyond traditional events, with the team taking on the Taylor Wimpey Challenge and even participating in the iconic Great North Run. These initiatives demonstrated the our determination to go above and beyond in support of our chosen charities.

Tiny Lives, a Newcastle-based charity, focuses on providing vital support to families with sick or premature newborns. Meanwhile, Maggies Newcastle, a cancer care charity, offers professional assistance spanning treatment side effects to financial concerns, catering to the diverse needs of the community.

Mick McMillan, Managing Director at Taylor Wimpey North East, said: “Both charities were selected by members of our team and provide exceptional care and support to those in the local community. In the face of the current difficulties affecting our community, we find immense joy in having the opportunity to lend our support and provide assistance to those who need it most, as well as being able to support charities that have made a difference to the lives of our colleagues. The resilience demonstrated by Tiny Lives and Maggies Newcastle is truly inspiring, and we are honoured to contribute to their admirable missions. This reflects our unwavering commitment to making a positive impact and fostering a sense of unity within the communities we serve.”

These substantial donations embody our commitment to more than just constructing homes. We're dedicated to building communities, supporting local initiatives, and making a meaningful impact where it matters most. As the community faces various challenges, our North East team remains steadfast in its mission to make a positive difference.
