JUNE CHARITY PARTNER UPDATE: STONEWALL'S RAINBOW LACES

Charity & Fundraising

About 

Wiper and True's Charity Partners programme is a simple fundraising scheme for organisations close to our hearts. Each month, a different charity is nominated by our very own team members. With your help and support, we then raise as much money as possible for the selected charity.

In May, we supported Bristol Borderline Personality Disorder Collective (BBPDC)a grassroots community project that helps deliver weekly in-person peer support to anyone living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD/EUPD), Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), individuals who experience emotional dysregulation/strong emotions and other BPD or CPTSD traits. 

We're delighted to announce that we raised £936.26 to support their work, so thank you to each and every one of you who helped.

Our June Charity Partner

This month, Wiper and True are raising money for Stonewall's Rainbow Laces campaign, the leading charity supporting LGBTQIA+ inclusion in sport.

Since Rainbow Laces kicked off in 2013, over a million people have laced up in support of LGBTQIA+ inclusion in sport, fitness and physical activity. But this must-win game isn’t over yet. Large parts of the community still can’t be their true selves whilst attending or participating in sporting events.

Find out more about Rainbow Laces here.

How do we raise money?

  1. We donate: we will donate £1 from every entry fee to our pub quiz. If you'd like to come along and support, find out more info info here.

  2. Karma Keg: each month at our Bristol Taproomwe will choose a designated 'Karma Keg'. Usually an exciting new release, we'll donate 100% of the profits from this keg to our chosen charity. We will mark the chosen Karma Keg clearly on our beer menus - all you have to do is order a pint! 

  3. You donate: you may have noticed the option to add an additional charity donation when checking out an order on our online shop. We'll collect these additional donations for our chosen charity for a whole month, then make a lump sum donation at the end of the month.

We know that charities find it difficult to budget for social activities. With that in mind, we also gift our monthly charity partner a £75 bar tab. 

Join us to support this cause 

As part of the month of fundraising, we've launched our limited edition 4.2% Pale Ale, Rainbow Laces Kaleidoscope. We'll be donating 100% of our profits from this to the charity to help support their amazing work. You can purchase the charitable can from our online shop, in Waitrose stores nationwide; and in pubs, bars and restaurants in Bristol and Beyond.
