City Plumbing is keenly involved in supporting the local communities in which it operates, and, as part of the Travis Perkins Group, donated more than £308,000 to worthwhile causes in 2006. The company greatly appreciates the efforts and kind donations made by its staff, customers and suppliers, and hopes to equal or better its donation to charities this year.

A charity committee helps to steer a variety of fundraising activities at branches nationwide throughout the year. Past events have included family fun days, carnival floats, dress up/dress down days, raffles, Dragon Boat racing, Car Washes and much more.

City Plumbing also operates a “Give As You Earn” scheme, enabling staff to donate to the three main company charities directly from their salary. The company then matches their donation pound for pound.

NCH (formerly National Children’s Home) is one of the UK's leading children's charities, helping children achieve their full potential for over 135 years.

Mencap is the UK's leading learning disability charity working with people with a learning disability and their families and carers. They also provide advice and support to meet people's needs throughout their lives.

A partner of Mencap, ENABLE Scotland campaigns for a better life for children and adults with learning disabilities and supports them and their families to participate, work and live in their local communities. To support individuals and families, ENABLE Scotland runs a growing range of flexible services for individuals based on what they want.
