In honour of the International Day of Charity, our team at The Allendale Group have participated in guessing games to raise donations for the Down’s Syndrome Association.
We arranged various fun challenges to get everyone in the office involved for this excellent cause. Our challenges involved guessing how long a piece of string was, how many Portavolt Variable Transformers there were in a picture, and how many wrapped sweets there were in our C106 case.
Helping to improve our local area and work together with local businesses”
We are pleased to announce that we have joined the “Love Hoddesdon” team. They raise around £100k a year from 200 businesses in the town to fund work to help local businesses prosper and attract more shoppers & visitors to the town and we cannot wait to get more involved!
Allendale was founded in Hoddesdon and has been our headquarters home since 2003. Recently awarded with ‘Business of the Year – East Herts’ at the Herts Chamber event 2019, our company is thriving, with our own manufacturing and distribution facilities in the USA and China.
We'll be taking part and raising money for BBC’s Children In Need this week with some fun (and tasty) activities for our staff to take part in from Monday 11th November through to Friday 15th.
Some of the activities the Allendale Group staff will be participating in are: Duck Race Sweepstake, Staff Baby Photo Competition and a week-long Bake Sale. Every penny will be donated to Children In Need which will help hundreds of thousands of children across the UK.

To raise awareness for Breast Cancer Day, the Allendale team have come dressed in an item of clothing which is pink, as well as having some delicious pink cakes made for us by a member of our Warehouse team. We have also included our very pink Vanity Case in the shot as well to add a bit more colour. This case can be found here.
Well done to everyone who got involved and has donated. For more information about Breast Cancer Awareness Day or to donate, please click here.
We were the highest bidders and fortunate winners of a fantastic prize kindly donated by Essex and Herts Air Ambulance & Hertfordshire Community Foundation at the Hertfordshire Chamber of Commerce Inspiring Awards Secret Auction. The winning prize was an all-access tour of Hertfordshire’s McMullen’s Brewery in Hertford and a tasty lunch at the Practioner.
A great afternoon enjoyed by the team and a big thank you to Jack who took us on our McMullen’s tour, as well as Essex and Herts Air Ambulance & Hertfordshire Community Foundation charities for a fantastic prize in the auction.
On June 16th, Dawn from our HR department will be taking on the mammoth 54 miles London to Brighton Bike Ride with her team, to raise a target of £1,500 for the British Heart Foundation.
The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to supporting from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist.
