J T Dove hit huge milestone of £250,000 raised in support of Chuf

J T Dove, long-time friends and partners Chuf have reached a significant fundraising milestone. In 2024 the team raised an incredible £33,847.44, bringing their fundraising over the past decade to an astounding £250,000 for Heart Heroes.

J T Dove’s corporate charity partnership with Chuf was established 11 years ago when they began working together on the CHUF’n’Builders project in 2014. This unique initiative united J T Dove and other construction industry players in a shared mission to raise vital funds for Chuf. The response was phenomenal, with seven companies joining forces to raise over £50,000. J T Dove decided to continue their charity support and made Chuf their official chosen charity.

At the beginning of the partnership they set themselves a fundraising target to raise £30k over 2 years, which was quickly achieved thanks to the unwavering support and enthusiastic participation of all J T Dove sites across the North East. By involving its customers and suppliers, the business has made fundraising fun for all involved, with golf days, race days, sponsored walks, bike rides and bake sales.

Charlotte Campbell, Director of Chuf said:

“Our relationship with J T Dove is so important to us and their ongoing commitment continues to take us from strength to strength. Their loyal support has had a transformative impact on the Heart Hero community and we are so grateful for everything they have helped us to achieve.”

J T Dove and Chuf’s successful partnership working was recognised at last year’s North East Charity awards where they won the coveted Corporate Charity Partnership category. Juliette Coplin, Marketing Co-ordinator at J T Dove, said:

“The award means so much to us because we have quite a few staff members in the business that have benefitted from Chuf’s support at the Freeman so we know that every penny we raise makes a real difference.”

Chuf’s loyal corporate supporters J T Dove are entering their 11th year of support and have even more exciting fundraising plans including a football tournament, family fun day and 20-mile hike from Whitby to Saltburn.
