Charity
Talbots Law have always been committed to raising money for good causes, and our staff have taken up a number of challenges over the years for the benefit of local and national charities.
This year is no exception and our staff have selected their Charity of the Year for 2018 as Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity, a cause close to the heart for many of the Talbots’ team.
At Talbots Law we always encourage our clients to remember a charity in their will. Click here to read about how you could help to write the story for tomorrow's children by remembering Birmingham Children's Hospital in your will.
What are we doing to raise money?
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
London-Paris Bike Ride
A team of five intrepid cyclists will be donning Lycra for Talbots, channelling their inner Bradley Wiggins, and getting on their bikes for their very own Tour de Talbots. Leaving London on Wednesday 5th September, they’ll be cycling around 300 miles over 4 days before arriving in Paris for a quick jog round the Arc de Triomphe before heading back on Sunday 9th.
All five are experienced cyclists, but we’re not sure if they are fully prepared for this test of endurance. However, they are training hard to make sure they can stay the distance.
Our intrepid team of Cycling Heroes are Matt Wistow (Business Development Director), Peter Hill (Compliance Director), Callum Haynes (Director & Head of New Enquiries), Keith Yates (Director & Head of Residential Property, and our fifth team member is Keith's son-in-law, Steve Kenny. For full details of the team, see below.
Between the five of them, they are looking to raise at least £14,500 for the Charity, and you can help by donating here.

What We're Raising Money For
Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity’s mission is to raise the vital funds needed to make a real difference to all who use the hospital’s services, offering them the best experience possible. Their vision is to provide the best possible facilities and environment at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, for their exceptional patients and young people.
Talbots are raising money specifically for the Critical Journeys Appeal to help fund lifesaving equipment for their fleet of four KIDS/NTS ambulances. The Charity is just £400k short of their £2m target and we want to help them get much closer.
What is KIDS/NTS?
What else are we doing?
In addition to our fundraising activities, we are also volunteering to spend some time in the Hospital’s busy outpatient and emergency departments to entertain our patients through arts and crafts!
Children can often be waiting to see our medical staff for long periods of time and this can increase stress and anxiety levels – of both patients and parents alike! We’ll be helping to provide art and craft activities to keep the children distracted and to provide them with something fun to take home.
