The Westgrove Group has announced a new partnership and founding patronship with the well-being and mental health charity, Mind Over Mountains. The company has pledged its support to the charity for 2022 and hopes to help people in the wider community access the support they need through outdoor events and activities combined with professional support.
Founded by Alex Staniforth in 2018 with the belief that everyone deserves access to the tools they need to stay mentally and physically well, as a founding patron, Westgrove provides financial assistance to enable the charity to support people facing challenging life circumstances.
Claire Mckinley-Smith, MD, the Westgrove Group, said: “We’ve worked with Alex for many years in his role as mental health brand ambassador for Westgrove. He provided our colleagues with mental health and well-being support and it is a privilege to continue this relationship as a founding patron of his charity, Mind Over Mountains. Looking after our employee’s wellbeing is of paramount importance to us and we’re pleased to be able to provide our colleagues across the UK with funded places and make Mind Over Mountains accessible to all.”
Alex Staniforth said: "Looking after well-being in the workplace has been more paramount than ever through the last two years and our programmes offer a sustainable solution to support colleagues, beyond simply ticking boxes. I'm extremely grateful for Westgrove supporting my own adventure challenges and charity fundraising as a young ambassador since 2014, and I'm delighted to see this evolve into a new partnership with Mind Over Mountains that will have a positive impact on even more lives."
