Linzi Walker

This year Northwood are celebrating our 15th year in business and to mark the milestone, we’ve pledged our commitment to help at least 15 local charities.

Each month, we’ve donated our time to charities in a way that is helpful. From odd jobs to painting, jet-washing to sorting, mucking-out and bathing tortoises to weeding and counting puzzle pieces. We’ve helped truly outstanding charities including Somebody Cares, Befriend a Child, SensationALL, HomeStart, Maggie’s and Halfpenny Animal Sanctuary and have secured dates with Cyrenians, MISS Miscarriage Support, Denis Law Trust, Mission Christmas, JAS Counselling and Grampian Women’s Aid.

On Friday 23rd August, we’ll push ourselves to our limits by walking 18.6 miles – from our brand new office in Banchory to our original office in Rosemount, Aberdeen.

Finally, on Friday 1st November, we'll be taking this further and participate in a FIRE WALK. Just like our walk, we are inviting other members of network to join us and raise money for our charities. Thank you in advance for your support!

All money raised will be split amongst our chosen charities – as nominated by our team and voted by our clients and contractors:
• Forget Me Not
• Aberdeen Amateur Athletic Club
• Friends of Anchor

Whether you can donate a little or a lot, we're truly so grateful. Every penny will help us reach our target and support such worthwhile charities.
