What amazing supporters we have in the Cambridge business community. Several of our partners chose ITAC to benefit from their Giving Tree campaigns in the lead up to Christmas.
Our CEO, Lis Silver’s heart was more than warmed by the donations received from PEM and Bidwells, who had set up Giving Trees in their reception. This meant customers and staff could easily take a gift tag, buy the item and place it under the tree.
Lis said ‘I’ve been out working as Santa’s little helper. Amazed at the generosity of so many companies in the city. Arrived back to our hostel to be greeted by some current guests who saw me unloading and were blown away by the fact there will be gifts on Christmas Day. Exact quote unprintable!’
We were also delighted when Peter Burrows and colleagues visited Crossways to deliver the Giving Tree donations collected by The Cambridge Building Society in their Ely, Newmarket and Cherry Hinton branches.

Matt and Chris were there to tell them more about our projects. We look forward to continuing to work with The Cambridge in 2026, as one of their community partners.
It is going to be a very happy Christmas with thanks to our friends all over the city.
