IUAD has so far raised £5.5 million to fund research and support services since the campaign launched in September 2017, and this is the first time an insurance provider has partnered with Alzheimer’s Society to broaden the fundraising initiative to include consumers. Thanks to pro bono work by Sputnik and development using CDL’s Strata APIs this is also the first time a personal lines broker has been able to use the platform to directly collect money for charities from customers during a quote journey. Atlanta, which owns Swinton Insurance, will further support Alzheimer’s Society with a programme of fundraising activities, education and awareness and plans to offer Dementia Friends information sessions to all 2,500 colleagues later this year. The business will also make a donation to Alzheimer’s Society from the Atlanta Community Fund. --- ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2021/06/Guy-300-for-30-training-1-1024x744. jpg) #### NL Property & Sepsis Research FEAT The founding directors of property, investment and development company [NL Property](https://www.nlproperty.co.uk/) are marking 30 years in business by attempting to raise £30,000 for the charity Sepsis Research FEAT.

As part of its Charity of the Year initiative, Spectrum’s Chief Executive, Dr Linda Harris OBE will be attempting to climb ‘10 Peaks in 10 Days’ starting on Friday 18 June. The challenge will see Dr Harris traverse ten of the highest peaks in the Lake District in a bid to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. The charity said in December 2020 that it would have to cut its research support by some £45m due to the massive loss in its own funding. As well as setting herself a £5,000 fundraising target, Dr Harris, alongside a number of supporters including staff, public health and NHS England colleagues, has opened the 10 peaks challenge to members of the public. --- > We’re SO excited to tell you that we are [@PizzaExpress](https://twitter.com/PizzaExpress?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)’ > new UK charity partner 🎉 Here's our friend and supporter, [@edibow](https://twitter.com/edibow?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > to tell you all about it! > The partnership will help us provide more music therapy > to vulnerable people across the UK.

To encourage holidaymakers to keep beaches clean on their summer adventures and stop crabs mistakenly swap their seashell homes for plastic, Love Home Swap has listed a number of crustacean cribs on its platform, alongside its other human homes, and is asking people to support the cause. Meet [Hamish](https://www.lovehomeswap.com/home-exchange/united-kingdom/animal-friendly-home-in-a-scottish-fishing-town) the hermit crab from Scotland, for example, or [Horace](https://www.lovehomeswap.com/home-exchange/jamaica/priory-stunning-sea-view-holiday-home-in-jamaica)( pictured), sporting a sea-view holiday home in Jamaica. Not only does each hermit crab’s profile highlight the importance of reducing pollution and the danger that littering has on the environment, but there is also the option to donate to Sea- Changers via a JustGiving donation page. In addition, Love Home Swap is donating $2,000 to Sea-Changers. --- #### And a few more in tweets: > Hello everyone, we have chosen our charities for the forthcoming year 2021/2022, > thank you to everyone who entered and helped spread the word.
