We've made it our mission to see our local communities thrive.
Hatchers have an extremely active fundraising calendar, holding both internal and external events to raise money for charity.
Each year, we select two charities, nominated by our people, and provide dedicated support and fundraising to them throughout the year.
This year, we are supporting Midlands Air Ambulance Charity and West Mercia Search and Rescue. You can find information about these important causes below.
Internally, we hold bake sales, dress-down days, staff picnics, and more. Over the past few years, our people have also been involved in larger-scale external events – they’ve walked the Yorkshire Three Peaks, completed various sporting challenges, and organised late night shopping events in aid of our chosen charities.
Beyond our fundraising efforts, we are also proud to support Shropshire-based events, clubs and societies that enrich the lives of the local people.
You can keep up-to-date with our fundraising and community efforts by following our social media channels, which we post to regularly.
Midlands Air Ambulance Charity (MAAC) operates and funds three air ambulances covering six Midlands counties including Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands.
In addition, the charity has two critical care cars – one covers Birmingham and the Black Country area, whilst the other attends missions in Worcestershire. Both are operational between 8am and 8pm daily. There is one critical care paramedic on-board each of the cars responding to medical incidents including heart attacks / strokes / sepsis and respiratory issues.
The charity responds to some of the most traumatic incidents including cardiac arrests, road traffic collisions and sports injuries. The aircraft reaches remote locations to attend to patients unreachable by land ambulance.
West Mercia Search and Rescue are the official Lowland Rescue unit for the West Mercia Police area, providing essential rescue services across Shropshire and the surrounding area. They are also a registered DEFRA Flood Rescue Boat team, and can be called to respond anywhere in the country where flooding occurs. We are proud to be a Silver Sponsor of West Mercia Search and Rescue.
