At Eclipse Magnetics, we are passionate about supporting our local communities.

That’s why our employees (and all employees within the Spear & Jackson Group) have the opportunity to take time out of work to volunteer for causes that are important to them.  

Rachael Berry, Sarah Fox & Sarah Stone recently spent a day volunteering at S6 Foodbank, part of the Trussell Trust, the charity that the Spear & Jackson Group are currently supporting with regular monthly donations. As well as assisting in packaging donations for distribution to other foodbank sites across the city, the group had the opportunity to make tea and coffee and spend time chatting to the people who had come to collect food.

A simple conversation or a listening ear is what makes the S6 Foodbank so special. It could be the only contact that a visitor has had all week, and the interaction can have a genuinely positive impact on their day.  

Speaking about their experience,

Rachael said:

 “We were blown away by the incredible work S6 does to help people who are genuinely struggling to make ends meet, and while all three of us were acutely aware of the inbox full facing us on our return to work, we all felt the experience was a hugely positive one - both for us and hopefully for the people we met. “

We’d encourage anyone to spend a day volunteering for a local cause and giving back to our local communities！
