In 2024, we wanted our fundraising to go further, so we chose to support two causes throughout the year: Liverpool Heartbeat and Sean’s Place.

So, what do our charity partners do?

Liverpool Heartbeat

Inspiring young people to live healthy and exciting lives, Liverpool Heartbeat educates regions youth on citizenship and wellbeing.

Their services include:

• Schoolwide confidence and self-esteem workshops
• Toy drives
• Anti-crime and anti-drug awareness campaigns
• Bike repairs, sporting equipment and kit sponsorship

We are proud to help them with their mission to make healthy living fun and accessible with regular monthly donations.

Sean’s Place

With our mental health training, we help people take a proactive approach to supporting their wellbeing, but when it comes to therapy or counselling we leave it to experts.

Working across Sefton and Liverpool City Region, Sean’s Place is ending the stigma surrounding men’s mental health. They offer a range of support from early intervention to therapy and counselling.

This cause is particularly close to Excel’s heart and after hearing first-hand experience of the life-changing support they offer, we wanted to help their fundraising efforts with:

• Monthly donations
• Prizes for events (such as vouchers for their upcoming Glitter Ball fundraiser).
