Cleanology has brought together some of the biggest names in the cleaning and FM industry to support the launch of a new annual fundraising event in aid of The Hygiene Bank.
In September 2021, Cleanology held its first charity event which raised over £14,000 for The Hygiene Bank, a national charity that alleviates poverty by providing hygiene products to those in need. Due to the success of that event, the wide publicity generated and the amount of money raised through the raffle and auction, CEO of Cleanology, Dominic Ponniah (pictured) is looking to make a bigger impact this year.
This year’s event has been backed by six industry businesses: Bridge Recruitment, Cleenol Group, Darwin Clayton, Liberty Hygiene, Truvox International, and Zep. They will join Cleanology in welcoming industry representatives to the private dining room of the Ivy Restaurant in central London on 27 September 2022, where guests will enjoy networking, drinks and canapes, a lively auction, and raffle.
Cleanology CEO, Dominic Ponniah, said: “Last year was our first fundraising event, and we managed to raise a staggering £14,000. This year, with these fantastic sponsors on board, we plan to make an even greater impact. I am incredibly grateful to all our sponsors for getting behind this important cause.”
Tom Poynter, UK chairman of The Hygiene Bank, said: "We are thrilled to be working with Cleanology again to raise vital funds to tackle hygiene poverty. With the cost-of-living crisis pushing more of us to make increasingly tough decisions, these partnerships with brands and corporates are more important than ever. Cleanology champions this collaborative approach to tackling hygiene poverty, enabling and empowering brands and corporates of all sizes to make a real difference to communities throughout the UK."
Dominic Ponniah welcomed the support of the six sponsors: “This commitment brings valuable extra funds, but we are also excited to be able to work collaboratively to tackle such an important issue. Figures show that one in three people have to go without hygiene essentials and, sadly, as the cost-of-living rises, we can only expect to see this number increase. The Hygiene Bank is really on the front line in supporting people through real crisis, and we welcome any companies that would like to join us to fight hygiene poverty.”
Tickets are £38 +vat each and available on Eventbrite, with all profits donated to The Hygiene Bank:
