Luxury pudding brand Pots & Co has announced a partnership with the UK’s largest children’s charity, Barnardo’s.
Pots & Co customers will now be able to take their empty ceramic pots to their local Barnardo’s store where they will be re-sold to raise funds to support the charity’s work with thousands of vulnerable children.
The brightly coloured ceramic pots the puds are baked in are a feature in themselves, but the company says ‘sustainability is paramount, so highlighting how the pots can be re-purposed for a charitable cause is a great opportunity.’
Pots & Co founder Julian Dyer said: “Pots & Co is run by a team of people who really care about people and sustainability, therefore we are delighted to be working with such a great cause. We hope our partnership with Barnardo’s will mean more people know about the amazing work they do for children across the UK as well as encouraging our fans to donate their spare Pots & Co pots to their charity shops.”
Barnardo’s aims to transform the lives of vulnerable children across the UK through the work of its vital services, campaigning and research expertise.
Barnardo’s chief executive, Javed Khan said: “We are delighted that Pots & Co have chosen to support us. The partnership will help to raise awareness of our services, which support more than 300,000 children, young people, parents and carers across the UK. We hope that Pots & Co customers will get behind the partnership and donate their ceramic pots to their local Barnardo’s store.”
There are more than 700 Barnardo’s shops nationwide and all of them will gratefully accept donations of Pots & Co pots, the company said.
