Supporting the community through Haringey Giving Week
We are proud of working alongside many other businesses within the industry, that share our values and community-focussed ethos. This November, as part of the wider team delivering Related Argent’s regeneration of Tottenham Hale, we are getting behind Haringey Giving Week – a week-long fundraising campaign. Here, Karen Hugh tells us more about what this involves and who it will benefit…
The regeneration of Tottenham Hale holds a special place in our ever expanding portfolio – as the first project that OFR was appointed on when the business was established back in 2016. And now, six years on we are proud that we have maintained and grown the relationship with developer, Related Argent, remaining as part of the project team as the development has gone from strength to strength.
OFR has played an important role in delivering this exciting masterplan. It’s already created a new community here for local people with two mixed-use residential buildings, a health centre, flexible working space and quite a lot of retail.
So, this month we are getting behind Haringey Giving Week, as part of Related Argent’s project team to show our support for this fantastic initiative which ‘is tackling the root causes of inequality, disadvantage and low income in the community.’ #HereForHaringey launches on the 29th November and will see individuals and businesses provide their time and investment into the area’s wide range of community programmes, such as food banks, supporting new mums with boxes of baby essentials, refugee support programmes and a temporary haven for rough sleepers in need.
As a business that is not only working within the community but is also committed to providing social value, we will be supporting Haringey Giving Week and will be posting details of our involvement shortly.
Our thanks to Sam Liptrott, Simeon Anastasov, Neil McPhail, Alan Curran, Alicia Harfield and colleagues across OFR who’ve worked on this project.
