We are delighted to have been selected by insurance provider Pen Underwriting as its Charity partner for 2023, after Pen put the power of choosing a partner into the hands of its people.
Pen is one of the UK’s largest and most diverse insurance managing general agents – insuring everything from tankers to technology firms, accountants to architects, and holiday homes to wholesalers – employing more than 450 people across 12 offices around the UK.
Thoughout the year, Pen will be holding various events around its offices to help raise funds and increase awareness of the mental health challenges faced by young people.
Hamir Patel, Chair of the Charity Committee at Pen Underwriting said: “When we asked our colleagues which charitable causes they would most like us to partner with, mental health emerged as an issue of universal support, one everyone could identify with and unite behind. That makes us especially proud to support the Charlie Watkins Foundation in its dedication to helping young people overcome their mental health challenges, through the charities and initiatives it funds.
“Together, we look forward to helping the foundation reach more young people, encouraging them to speak openly about their struggles and giving them the confidence to seek help, while equipping them with the tools to enhance their well-being.”
Tim Watkins, our co-founder, commented: “Pen’s support is greatly appreciated as we continue in our attempts to help young people who are fighting the challenge of mental health issues. Without the support of companies like Pen our task would be even harder. In partnership we can keep on funding important projects that make a tangible difference to the lives of vulnerable young people.”
Thank you, Pen, for choosing the Charlie Watkins Foundation
