Charitable Support & Community Engagement

We have a long history of charitable support and community engagement. It is imperative to the firm that we give back to our local communities, principally Southwark, as positively as possible.

We have a charity that we support across the firm for a two-year period. Our current charity partner is the Royal Trinity Hospice, which provides free specialist palliative and end-of-life care. Trinity supports people from the moment of their diagnosis through to the end of their lives, offering compassionate physical and emotional care.

Each year, Trinity cares for nearly 2,500 patients and offers critical support to hundreds of families. Their services include expert nursing, physiotherapy, complementary therapies, and counselling to improve the quality of life for patients and help loved ones navigate difficult times.

In previous years, we have supported the Felix Project, Redthread, The Rainbow Trust, Mind, Youth at Risk, Macmillan Cancer Support, The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity and Dementia UK, amongst others.

Our Charities Committee runs a range of fundraising activities across the firm each year including an annual Bake-Off, Quiz night, Christmas raffle and other entertaining activities that bring the firm together. The Charities Committee also organises an annual sponsored event, which has seen staff skydive, climb the Cutty Sark’s rig and hike the Yorkshire Three Peaks.

We are active in our local community through Southwark Education Alliance and run workshops with secondary school children.

Every person at Boodle Hatfield is encouraged to get involved with charitable support.

The firm has dedicated 24 hours per person a year to enable them to volunteer their time during the working day to give back.

Many departments are using this as a way to unite their teams across a common cause, organising group volunteering activities.
