ActiveQuote - 2024 Sponsorship collaborations!

Each year we ask the staff here at ActiveQuote to put forward their nominations for sponsorship. This year we received seven in total, and while all seven nominations were worthy of our support, two were picked at random using an online random selector.

Llantwit Fardre RFC Under 8’s – Nominated by Will H (Assoc. CIPD)
Rugby Clubs far and wide have for many years had to rely on the support of parents and local businesses to survive. Their financial contributions allow the clubs to register their teams, pay players registration fees, and to purchase kit and equipment year after year. Therefore, the club intend on using the sponsorship provided by ActiveQuote to help pay for next seasons kit and rugby equipment. And with it being the clubs 125th anniversary, ActiveQuote will be visible to see on this special edition kit, which we are very excited about. Llantwit Fardre has a long history, and the under 8’s are the future. ActiveQuote would like to wish Will’s son, and the rest of the team all the very best for this and next season and look forward to watching the team’s progress. Who knows, there may even be a Welsh International player in the making. This nomination came from Will Hunt whose son plays for Llantwit.

Stephen Carwardine – Nominated by Tracy Carwardine
Stephen is currently in Jaca, Spain, representing Great Britain at the World Inline Hockey Championships. This competition is held every year and this year Great Britain have entered a Masters and a Veterans team and will compete against the likes of Spain, Italy, Australia, Brazil and France to name but a few. The main reason for this nomination was because there is no funding for this sport, therefore those who are chosen must finance the trip themselves. These costs include, entry fees, game kit, insurance, flights, accommodation, and food, therefore, the sponsorship has been used to contribute toward these costs. Everyone here at ActiveQuote would like to wish Stephen Carwardine and the GB Maters and Veterans teams all the very best in the competition. Do us proud!

💙Mental Health Awareness Week - 13th-19th May💙
💙Movement: Moving more for our Mental Health 💙

As it’s Mental Health Awareness week, and as this years’ Mental Health Awareness theme is movement, we have set up a step challenge using the Pacer App. The App is free to download and allows you to create a challenge, which in turn generates a challenge code that can be shared so that others can join. A big thanks to Chaniece Goulbourne for creating the challenge and for inviting all staff to join. We wish all those taking part all the best - Happy Stepping!

It’s only Monday morning, but Sian Kerslake is currently in the top spot, with Chaniece Goulbourne second and Chris Hill (CIPD) third. Yes - there is a leaderboard for all participants to see, but who doesn’t love a little friendly competition!

How do you take care of your Mental Health?

You might walk, run, meditate, bake, or even potter around in the garden. Whatever you do, know that you are doing good. Taking time out, even for just a few minutes a day can and will help.

Mental Health Awareness Week, is a week dedicated to highlighting the importance of taking care of our Mental Health, and provides us with ideas on what we can do to help ourselves.

So, STOP! - Take a deep breath, and for just a second live in the moment.

💜 Mental Health Awareness Week - 13th - 19th May 2024 💙

We’d love for you to share with us how you take care of your Mental Health by leaving us a comment below. 👇 Your selfcare habits or ideas may just help someone in need.

Another successful ‘Friday Happy Hour’, this month organised and run by Sales Support.

These happy hours allow staff to socialise and wind down on a Friday afternoon, while engaging with staff members they may not otherwise engage with on a day-to-day basis.

This month Sales support challenged teams to build the tallest tower using just marshmallows and dried spaghetti, which as you can imagine would have taken great teamwork and patience. The QA team were victorious in building the tallest tower, and while we do not have evidence of this, the pictures below give you an idea of how creative teams became and the concentration used when constructing their masterpieces, as captured below where our CEO Rob Saunders was well and truly invested.

A Friday afternoon spent well with work colleagues!

Well done Team QA on your win and to Sales Support for organising 👏👏

A great response from the ActiveQuote staff - Well done to all involved 👏🏻👏🏻

A huge thank you to the staff here at ActiveQuote for their Trussell Trust foodbank donations. Your generosity will be greatly appreciated by those in need this Easter.

Hats off to Will H (Assoc. CIPD) who brought this idea to the table and who has kindly offered to deliver our donations to the local foodbank. We even had a few Easter eggs donated, so hopefully they will bring a smile to the face of a child or two!

There is no better feeling than giving back, and as a company we are very proud to have gathered what we have. And while it is a sad state of affairs that foodbanks have to exist, we love that we can help in this way.
