Our connection with Andrews Property Group
Andrews Property Group, also known as Andrews locally or AndrewsOnline on the internet, give their profits to us. We wholly own the business and work closely together.
Cecil Jackson-Cole gave our trust shares in his business - Andrews Property Group before he died. He always involved his employees in developing new charities, often seconding them for periods of time. He firmly believed that charities benefit from being operated by business-minded people. As he founded and grew more than 60 charities we think he had a point!
Today we retain that unique relationship. Senior executives are on our board of trustees and support our charitable partners, often by being a trustee on their board. Andrews staff give many pro-bono and voluntary hours to help our charity partners and our [establish] project.

Employees volunteer and fundraise for the projects we support and are given a paid day each year to do this. Some take that a lot further once they befriend the people they are helping and do much more.
"Just a big thank you on helping with securing funding for the religious books. They are a great addition to the prison library."
