Read below to discover some of the charities and businesses we support, along with the events and initiatives we proudly take part in to help our communities thrive.
The Purr-fect Partnership
Welsh Mountain Zoo – Snow Leopard Enclosure Sponsorship
At Thornley Leisure Parks, we’re delighted to sponsor the Snow Leopard enclosure at the Welsh Mountain Zoo. These beautiful, endangered animals hold a special place in our hearts, and our support helps ensure they receive the care and protection they need. The zoo does incredible work in wildlife conservation and education, and we’re proud to play a part in safeguarding these majestic creatures for future generations to admire and cherish.
Bringing Communities Together Over Coffee
Macmillan Coffee Mornings
Across many of our parks, we proudly host Macmillan Coffee Mornings to support those affected by cancer. These events bring our communities together over coffee and cake, all while raising vital funds for Macmillan’s incredible work. It’s a simple, heartfelt way for us to make a difference and stand with a cause that touches so many lives.
Compassionate Care for Families
Ty Gobaith (Hope House) Children’s Hospice
We’re proud to support Ty Gobaith (Hope House), a wonderful children’s hospice providing vital care to children with life-threatening conditions and their families. To raise funds and awareness, we host fun days across our parks, bringing communities together for this important cause. Their incredible work makes a real difference, and we’re honoured to contribute to their mission of offering comfort, hope, and specialist care when it’s needed most
Fundraising at New Heights
St David’s Hospice
Our amazing Office Manager, Alison, and Company Director, Will, took to the skies—literally!—to raise funds for St David’s Hospice. Together, they braved a thrilling wing walk, soaring through the air to support this vital charity that provides compassionate end-of-life care. Thanks to their courage and the generous support of our community, they raised an incredible £8,000. We’re beyond proud of their efforts and honoured to contribute to the hospice’s life-changing work.
Supporting Lifesaving Emergency Response
Yorkshire Air Ambulance
At Gallaber Park, we’re proud to support Yorkshire Air Ambulance, a lifesaving charity providing rapid emergency response across the region. Through our fundraising efforts, we help keep their helicopters in the air, ensuring they can continue delivering critical care when it’s needed most. It’s an incredible cause, and we’re honoured to play a part in supporting their vital work.
