Charity Activity
Each year Cardgains chooses a different charity to support and since the first event in 1998 supplier, members and staff have raised around £400,000 through various events including golf days, bike rides, raffles.

Previous events
Charity Challenge 2023
The 2023 event was a 25 mile walk around London, which took place on Thursday 29th June.
We had a really fabulous day exploring previously unknown (to most of us) canals, parks, gardens and corners of London.
There were over 50 industry friends and colleagues who took part, and it’s fair to say that we all know each other a little better after a day’s walking!
Our celebration meal took place at The Lockhouse in Paddington.

We were very well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed our pie and chips!
Our retail wear specialist S66 Sportwear designed these rather special t-shirts for everyone to wear!
