Cleveland Chooses 2023 Charities of the Year

MS Society and Teesside Hospice alike, are highly recognised charities for the fantastic services they provide to people who may need them.

To decide on these two charities, we sent out a Charity of the Year survey and both charities got the most votes- it was a draw between the two, therefore we decided to go for both of them.

Teesside Hospice and MS Society Tees & Esk do phenomenal work in our community helping to improve the lives of local people. Supporting these charities means that we can help them in their mission to make a meaningful impact on Teesside, this is an absolute honour for us.

The MS Society understands the struggle of living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) – a lifelong condition which affects the brain and nerves. The ultimate goal of the charity is to find treatments for everyone with MS, however, in the meantime, are working tirelessly to ensure no one has to face MS alone.

We are pleased to be in partnership with Cleveland group as this will hopefully widen our exposure both locally and nationally.

Teesside Hospice supports both people and families who have been affected by terminal illnesses. The vision of the charity is to develop new ways of both supporting emotional well-being and delivering hospice care providing the best care at the end of their life.

We are over the moon to be in partnership with Cleveland group. Teesside Hospice is only possible because of the support of local companies, so it means so much that a local company is supporting a local charity. It is going to make a huge difference for people right across our area.

Debbie Coulson, Director of Income Generation at Teesside Hospice

We are overjoyed to be in partnership with MS Society and Teesside Hospice who are both doing such great things to help our local communities. The achievements of the two charities are admirable and we look forward to offering our support to enable them to continue.

Andrew Thompson, Chief Executive Officer at Cleveland

Going forward, we will be hosting several fundraising events for these two fantastic charities throughout the year.
