Supporting Our Armed Forces: Milbank’s Armed Forces Week Fundraiser

As proud signatories of the Armed Forces Covenant, Milbank Concrete Products is committed to showing ongoing support for the Armed Forces community – both serving personnel and veterans, as well as their families.

To mark Armed Forces Week 2024, our team came together on 25th June to host a special fundraiser in aid of SSAFA – The Armed Forces Charity, an organisation that provides lifelong support to those who serve, or have served, in the British Armed Forces.

Baking, Brewing & Fundraising

With a fantastic spread of homemade cakes, biscuits and sweet treats, staff across the business got involved in our bake sale, while all proceeds from our canteen on the day were also donated to the cause. It was a great opportunity to bring everyone together, enjoy a few treats, and raise money for an incredibly important charity.

Thanks to the generosity of our team (including Milbank Group), we’re proud to share that we raised a total of £649.30 for SSAFA.

“As a business, it’s important that we continue to recognise the contributions made by our Armed Forces, not just during Armed Forces Week but throughout the year,” said Philip Maxwell, Armed Forces Veteran and Group Projects and Facilities Manager, “This fundraiser is just one of the ways we aim to give something back.”

Ongoing Commitment

Our involvement with the Armed Forces Covenant reflects Milbank’s wider commitment to supporting veterans and reservists as part of our workforce and the broader community. Whether through fundraising, flexible employment opportunities, or awareness-raising, we’re proud to play our part in recognising the vital role the Armed Forces play.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, baked, donated and supported this event – your efforts are truly appreciated!
