The Leathwaite Community

For 5 days between the 24th – 29th of June Leathwaite will go up against Pelham Street to see who can travel the furthest distance to raise heart rates, spirits and funds. The distance will be covered by running, cycling, walking or going the distance with distinction! Leathwaite will be donating £1.00 for every km undertaken to help vulnerable children into loving homes. please click on the link below to find out more information about the event:

Many Leathwaite employees have taken their time during Lockdown to help others where and when they can during the Coronovirus pandemic. Globally Leathwaite individuals have helped by joining The Samaritans, calling the elderly, even helping to teach.

Leathwaite kicked off it’s relationship with one of the London 2020 charity partner’s: Hope and Homes. The Valentines Day Bake Sale and Raffle raised almost £1,000, with amazing support and involvement from everyone within the London office.

January saw Leathwaite create and deliver a number of support boxes to the Manna Society – a day centre that has been running since 1982 and provides essential help to between 120 and 150 homeless and disadvantaged people every day. The boxes included essential items for the cold weather such as space blankets, socks and gloves, as well as books, reusable water bottles and much more. The staff of the day centre expressed how these simple items can make such a difference to the outlook of someone who is homeless.

Since 1966, the IIB is the only national trade association devoted exclusively to advancing the interests of the international banking community operating in the US. With many of our banking clients already a member of the IIB, Leathwaite was invited to join the institution as a professional firm member. We are excited to be a part of a truly unique and exclusive community and look forward to working with global banking and financial institutions to understand the issues that affect them and provide relevant insights.

Amy Coulstock, James Rust, Neil Ejje and Kevin Matthews all took part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon on a very wet and windy Sunday morning to help add even more to the Leathwaite fundraising for GOSH (Leathwaite’s charity for 2019), adding a further £3,000 to this year’s total. Well done to all!

Leathwaite was involved again in the excellent fundraising efforts of GOSH (Leathwaite’s charity for 2019), attending the annual Sight and Sound Gala Ball. Our current fundraising total for the year stands at…. £23,495.74 – an absolutely fantastic achievement!

On September 18th 2019 Leathwaite hosted its second annual ‘Career Beyond Rugby Workshop’ in partnership with The Hong Kong Rugby Union.
As in 2018, the intention was to provide current players from both the Hong Kong Men’s and Women’s 7s and 15s rugby teams with a much stronger foundation in which to prepare for their transition to a ‘second career’ beyond rugby.

Some baked and some bought, but everyone took part! Leathwaite, yet again, was proud to support the Macmillan annual coffee morning, raising over £165 from our London office.
