The Nottingham-based team of an international engineering company specialising in renewable energies has chosen to lend their mighty support to Headway Nottingham throughout 2022!

The talented and innovative team at Onyx InSight, an award-winning global, renewable technology business, have set themselves the challenge of raising as much money and awareness as possible of Headway Nottingham's support of the brain injury community.  

Onyx InSight's CEO, Bruce Hall explained:

"We’re really excited to be working in partnership with Headway Nottingham throughout 2022.  At Onyx Insight we carried out a survey with a choice of charities to support, and Headway was voted the number 1 choice and it has now become our Charity of the Year!

"Headway undertakes crucial work with people who develop disabilities as a consequence of a brain injury. It is great to know that over the next twelve months we will be able to help spread the word about their important services and raise vital funds to make sure their support remains available for people who urgently need them in our Nottingham community.  

"We’re a people-focused business, with our roots in Nottingham, so we’re thrilled to be able to make a real difference to the lives of local people on our doorstep. We will be organising events from quizzes to sporting challenges, and we look forward to beating our target and being very proud of the difference Onyx InSight has made to our community’.

The team have already welcomed Headway's Assistant Manager for a brain injury workshop for their staff in person and online, have held a Christmas Jumper Day and commenced their fundraising in the most delicious way... with a team Tuck Shop!  Fundraising doesn't always have to be hard work! 

Headway Nottingham's Services Manager, Charlotte Leask said of the adoption:

"It's so exciting that the team at Onyx InSight have chosen to support us over 2022!  We appreciate that at the moment businesses are working hard to adapt to the post-pandemic world so supporting local charities has had to fall to the bottom of the priority list. We've seen a decline in the amount of financial support that local businesses have been able to offer us as we've weathered the pandemic, so the support of the Onyx InSight team is brilliantly timed for us and very gratefully received! 

"They're a company defined by innovation and looking to the future, so it's no surprise that they've been able to buck the trend and take a big step forward for their community.  The team will undoubtedly help us achieve wonderful things alongside our clients and we can't wait to get cracking with working with them over the coming year!"
