Helping Sheffield events become reusable

The Loadhog Foundation was established in 2021, allowing us to donate more to a larger range of charities. Loadhog encourages the foundation by giving 1% of its budgeted pre-tax net profits every year, going towards supporting local, national and international charities as well as good causes.

A recent good cause has been donating 600 reusable cups to Plastic Free Sheffield to use at their own Plastic Free Sheffield festival and numerous events around the Sheffield area. Loadhog always jumps on the chance to work with local organisations as we are proud to help the community, especially when we have the chance to educate about sustainability. Reducing single use plastics is something that both Plastic Free Sheffield and Loadhog are passionate about. The work that Plastic Free Sheffield has done has been important in highlighting this environmental issue, through different events to engage the community.

We hope that by the local community understanding the importance of a circular economy, that Sheffield becomes more sustainable. We also recognise how hard it is for some organisations to spread their message with a lack of funding, especially at these tough times. The ethos of giving something back has existed from the beginning at Loadhog and we have a brilliant workforce of people who often give their time to support and help charitable projects and fundraising events. The Foundation widely engages our workforce and allows people to choose causes that are close to their hearts.
