The Trader Media Group Charity Committee

 

We encourage our employees to get involved with the community and support Trader Media Group's community relation initiatives.

 

Our people across the UK and Ireland support local and national charities, to ensure we’re supporting causes which matter most and other organisations as well as our main charity partner.

 

We match funds raised by our employees in our local business communities, and give donations such as PCs, furniture and other equipment. We also allow community groups to use our facilities to help run their organisations.

 

Charity of the Year

 

Trader Media Group is continuing its partnership with Samaritans for 2007-08.

 

The partnership will help Samaritans reach a greater number of people through magazines, exhibitions and new media – hopefully saving more lives in the process.

 

One of the partnership’s main aims is to reduce suicide and distress amongst young men, while making the use of an emotional health helpline more accessible.

 

Samaritans received 4.8 million contacts last year. To read more about our charity of the year visit our Samaritans page.

 

 

We are very excited about this partnership with Samaritans, and we hope it will allow the charity to help more people.
John King, CEO of Trader Media
