Warm Glass Giving Back 2019

Giving Back 2019

Our Charity Project 2019

Every year, the team at Warm Glass UK choose a charity project to support.

For 2019, we have chosen a project in Cambodia, which Simon and Pippa have both visited recently. The Mekong Wheelchair Project manufactures and distributes 1000 appropriate wheelchairs a year to disabled people throughout Cambodia. We have pledged to raise awareness and raise funds to support the workshop and the wheelchair users it helps.

Cambodia Team - 1993

 

“This project is quite personal to me as I helped set it up twenty-five years ago. The project has produced over 25,000 wheelchairs since 1993 and continues to help people every day."

Simon Gue, Managing Director, Warm Glass UK

 

 

Watch our short video to find out more about our chosen charity for 2019.

So far, we have raised over £3,000 - enough money for 24 wheelchairs for The Mekong Wheelchair Project.

 

In May several members of the Warm Glass team raised enough money for 12 wheelchairs by running the Bristol 10k. Most of us were not natural runners, but it was a fantastic day and we are grateful to everyone who sponsored us. You can see how we got on in this video.

With your support, we can make a significant and positive impact on many people’s lives in Cambodia. Our target for 2019 is to raise enough money to fund 24 wheelchairs and to support the workshop.

Cambodia 2018   

What did we do in 2018?

Last year, alarmed by the David Attenborough Blue Planet II documentary, the team at Warm Glass dedicated 2018 to implementing new sustainable packaging. Over the year we have achieved the following:

Warm Glass Environmental Packaging
  • Reduction of plastic packaging use by 95%
  • 100,000 plastic bags taken out of the packing process
  • All bubble wrap has been replaced with corrugated card from sustainable sources

Our campaign was very well received and we really appreciate your words of encouragement that have supported us to have sustainability at the core of our business.
