Working in partnership with major client VUBA to achieve fundraising goal

2022 is going to be a big year of celebrations for Sowdens as we triumph our 40th year in business (yeah, you heard it right, four decades). We thought it was an opportune moment to give back, so when our client, VUBA, invited us to take part in their 6-month challenge to fundraise £10,000 for Dove House Hospice, we couldn’t wait to get stuck in.

Technology doesn’t run a business, relationships do

Relationships are vital in business, in and out of the office, and this is far from the first time we’ve worked together at breaking boundaries. As VUBA’s digital marketing agency we’re proud to have been part of their journey of exponential growth and their epic rise as entrepreneurial market leaders in resin bound surfacing, decorative stone binders and epoxy craft resin, helping to launch and build their portfolio of brands across the UK and around the world for the past 3 years. And this is only the beginning…

Conquering the Yorkshire Three Peaks – 24 miles in 12 hours

VUBA kick off their fundraising journey this weekend on Sat 12 February. The Three Peaks trek will see the team reach the summits of Pen-y-ghent (2,276ft), Whernside (2,415ft) and Ingleborough (2,372ft) in under 12 hours. The 24-mile circular route is popular amongst avid hikers, and we’re sure with Beth and Sami from Sowdens by their side (with their youth, determination, fitness and power…) they’ll absolutely smash it. To be fair, they’ll probably be clock watching from the top!

Dove House has relied entirely on donations for over 40 years

Many have experienced the amazing care of Dove House Hospice, who provide outstanding community care for patients with life limiting illnesses; people’s mums, dads, grandmas, grandads, brothers and sisters. Crucial donations and support enable the charity to continue to offer specialist 24/7 care. So, we believe this is a really worthy cause.

So will Beth be in the office on Monday, or will she be stranded in her Sowdens safety blanket?

For those that know Beth (Account Manager and Sowdens trek team member) will know one thing, she’s not short of energy and drive – in body, mind and spirit.

So, we know she’ll absolutely rise to the challenge.

But joking aside, we all know that exercise is a key ingredient to success in business, especially in marketing. It’s paramount to improving mental health, memory, focus and happiness (all of which we advocate over here at Sowdens). As they say, a trained body is a trained mind.

So, dig deep, show the love and please donate today

Help VUBA and Sowdens raise this ambitious goal, even if it’s a couple of quid (less than a pint that is) we would really appreciate it.

Thanks to all those that have already donated.
