Last week, ten Propel volunteers swapped their desks for a spot of gardening at Penny Brohn UK’s Bristol centre to help maintain the charity’s beautiful grounds, including raking the wildflower meadows.

Julie Warren, Propel Marketing and Partnerships Director, said: “We really enjoyed getting stuck in and supporting the fantastic work Penny Brohn UK does. We’re proud to support the charity and were delighted to donate a new hedge trimmer for their volunteer gardeners, purchased through Propel’s charity fund.”

Imogen Hirst, Penny Brohn UK Corporate Partnerships Manager, said: “It was fantastic to welcome the Propel team and see them getting stuck into the gardening. We’re incredibly grateful for their time, the donated hedge trimmer and their wider support for Penny Brohn UK.”

A huge thank you to everyone who volunteered and to Penny Brohn UK for the warm welcome. We look forward to continuing our support over the coming months.

Julie Warren DipM ACIM, Propel Marketing Director & Chair of our Charities Committee, comments: "We're incredibly proud of what our people have achieved through our charity fundraising efforts over the past year. Both Penny Brohn UK and Noah's Ark Children's Hospital Charity have a profound impact on the lives of the people they support, and we're excited to help them continue their fantastic work. We look forward to raising as much as we can for two truly deserving causes."

Together we've raised an incredible £27,000 for our Charities of the Year!

💜 £7,000 for CYFANNOL WOMEN'S AID
💙 £20,000 for Teens Unite Fighting Cancer

As our current charity partnerships come to a close, we're incredibly proud to have supported these two amazing charities over the past year and the impact we've made together.

Julie Warren, Propel Marketing Director & Chair of our Charities Committee, comments: "To raise £27,000 in the first full 12 months since launching our charity focus is an incredible achievement. It shows what can be accomplished when dedicated people come together behind great causes. We'd like to thank everyone who has donated, volunteered, supported our fundraising activities, and helped make a real difference to the communities these charities serve. We're also grateful to Cyfannol Women's Aid and Teens Unite for their partnership and the incredible work they do every day.”

Propel is proud to be recognised as the asset finance lender with the highest growth rate over the past 5 years, achieving 415% growth over that period (AFUK50). This is a real testament to our amazing team and incredible partners who trust us with their customers.

Reflecting on the latest edition of the AFUK50 rankings survey published last week, Julie Warren, Propel Marketing Director, said: “One of the biggest takeaways for me is there’s no single formula for growth, and no single formula for competitive advantage. Our experience is that the UK asset finance market is becoming more inter-connected, highly technology and service driven, and more partnership orientated. It’s a hugely important eco-system supporting UK SMEs and corporates accessing finance for capital investment, and we’re finding that the market is reshaping around core strengths and expertise of its many participants”.

Mark Catton, CEO added “Propel’s investment focus has been to build a market leading team, together with proprietary technology & data platform, and investment-grade operating infrastructure. This has enabled us to win and navigate major Bank and OEM partnerships, be a valued contributor to their eco-system and customer franchises and support their customer strategies. Our more recent investment in embedded finance and collaboration with Apple Financial Services broadens our reach into point-of-sale digital finance, offering a consumer-grade experience and circular supply chain proposition to B2B customers at checkout. We fully expect this proposition to scale materially as Banks look for digital lending solutions, OEMs and merchants invest in their B2B e-commerce strategies, and SMEs access finance at their convenience. Propel is right at the front of this B2B market-shift and we’re working with a number of major partners to support unique customer propositions.”

It was great to attend the Groundswell Festival this week alongside our partners at Barclays Business Banking, connecting with farmers and agricultural businesses from across the sector. We enjoyed discussing farm finance and business growth, sharing ideas, and building new relationships throughout the event.

A big thank you to everyone who took the time to speak with us.
