Here at Arun Estates, we are passionate about supporting our local communities across the whole of the Southeast and our staff are committed to fundraising for charities close to our hearts.
Over the years, Arun Estates have donated an incredible £16 million to charitable causes!
As a company, we believe it is important to give back to our communities and support those who need it the most and this is a belief that starts from our in-branch and support staff and runs all the way through to senior management and beyond.
Supporting our communities
Our team have gone to amazing lengths to raise money for their local causes.
Whether through running, cycling, swimming, triathlons, cake sales, quiz nights or washing cars, our staff have raised £750,000 in donations and fundraising for charities close to their hearts and, aside from contributing directly to our charitable partners, Arun Estates have incredible incentives to help our team reach fundraising targets. Whether that means paying your entry fee to take part in an event or internal support to promote your fundraising, we are here for you.
