12 Days of Goodwill

The LSL Communities Forum has launched its winter campaign and, as last year, is encouraging colleagues to show their support to their local communities during 12 Days of Goodwill.

Each day from 1-12 December colleagues are being offered ideas to support others; from donating to food banks or charities, to offering help to someone who needs it or supporting a small business - there’s a variety of ideas being suggested. Colleagues are also invited to pledge their support – as shown below.

The campaign will also bring colleagues together in celebrating a Group-wide Festive Jumper Day with a request for charity donations. There’s four charities being supported: Save the Children, Sunshine Chronicle Charity, Lily Mae Foundation and Dementia UK – which LSL will support with further contributions.

As a Group we want to have a positive and lasting impact on the communities we work in – as we report in our Living Responsibly Report – and this is yet another way the forum support this.
