We support...

Make May Purple

We look good in purple but, in May 2024, some of the WEBPRO team wore it to Make May Purple in support of the Stroke Association.

The Stroke Association says:
"In previous years, we've marked Stroke Awareness Month with our Make May Purple campaign. Since May 2021, we've focused on raising awareness of issues related to stroke research and recovery.

#LetsTalkAphasia

Did you know that 40% of stroke survivors have aphasia soon after a stroke? You're not alone. Many people don't even know what aphasia is.

Aphasia is a communication problem that affects a stroke survivor's ability to speak and understand what others say. Aphasia can cost stroke survivors their independence, the ability to work and to communicate with their loved ones."

Pyjamas for PanCan

In April 2024, some of the WEBPRO team donned their pjs for the day in support of Pancreatic Cancer Action's Pyjamas for PanCan day.

In their own words:
"We are the only UK charity that specifically focuses on improving pancreatic cancer survival rates through early diagnosis in everything we do. We raise awareness of the symptoms and risk factors of pancreatic cancer across the year."

Red Nose Day

Throughout March 2024, the WEBPRO team stepped up for Red Nose Day to raise some money for Comic Relief. We had fun, got a bit of exercise, enjoyed some spring sunshine and, most importantly, raised some money for a good cause.

Comic Relief say:
"We support local community organisations and brilliant change-makers here in the UK and across the globe.

Your donations help us fill the shelves of baby banks, community food centres, fund vital community-led services like health workers, local youth safe-spaces, and ensure safe passage for people escaping danger. Find out more about the impact of your donations."

Wear a Hat Day

Not all of us have a suitable hat so, in March 2024, our talented Graphic Designer gave the team their very own hats in aid of Brain Tumour Research. It's a funny picture but for a very good cause and we're proud to have supported it.

From Brain Tumour Research:
"Wear A Hat Day is Brain Tumour Research’s annual event raising money to bring hope to brain tumour patients and their families. Every March, as Brain Tumour Awareness Month comes to a close, people from all walks of life put on their favourite hat at work, in school, with friends and family, and hold hat-themed events and make donations to help find a cure for brain tumours, which kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer."

Go Red for Heart Month

In February 2024, we supported the British Heart Foundation with their Go Red for Heart Month.

From the British Heart Foundation:
"Go Red for Heart Month is all about getting together with your community to raise money for lifesaving research. Whether it's losing a loved one to a cardiac arrest or coping with the devastating impact of heart failure, too many of us have felt the pain of heart and circulatory diseases. We’re urging the nation to help us save and improve more lives by Going Red this February."

Brew Monday

We drink a lot of tea here at WEBPRO but on this day in January 2024, it was for a very special cause as we were supporting Samaritans with their Brew Monday campaign.

Samaritans say:
"The third Monday in January is sometimes referred to as ‘the most difficult day of the year’ but this is a myth. At Samaritans we know there’s no such thing as ‘Blue Monday’ – we all have our good days and our bad days, and those aren’t for the calendar to decide.

So we say it's time to stop this myth about Monday being 'blue' and instead start a conversation over a brew! ​Reach out and connect with family, friends, colleagues and loved ones."
