Every 27 minutes, someone in the UK is diagnosed with lymphoma, the most common form of blood cancer. Today is World Lymphoma Awareness Day and we are helping @lymphoma_action to raise awareness of the early symptoms. If you are experiencing some of the following, please get checked out by your GP: - Sudden loss of weight - Feeling worn out for no reason - Finding a lump in your neck, armpit or groin - Itching all the time - Sweating at night Don’t delay - get it checked out if you think there is something wrong. #lymphomaawareness #bloodcancerawarenessmonth #cancer #nextphaseToday is World Photography Day! We thought it would be fun for everyone at Next Phase to share a photo that they have taken over the last couple of years which they feel demonstrates “positive change”. Given how turbulent the last year has been for so many, it is great to share pictures which convey positivity, hope and optimism for a bright future. As you can see there are some similarities as well as differences in these photos. This just goes to show how everyone perceives positivity differently as well as showing individuality within our workplace. Thank you to everyone who sent over a photo and decided to get involved! #nextphase #worldphotography #worldphotographyday #positivechange #sunset #sea #mountains #progress #natureFootgolf on a hot summer’s evening - what could be a better way to spend a couple of hours after work? Thanks to Matthew Tyson and the team at Richard Place Dobson for organising a fantastic charity footgolf evening, raising over £2,700 for St Catherine’s Hospice Sussex and Surrey. It felt great to be part of such a good cause, and to be out and about socialising with a variety of local businesses. #nextphase #footgolf #charityfundraising #teambuildingLast Friday we all travelled up to Central London to enjoy a lovely 3 course meal at Gordon Ramsey’s Heddon Street restaurant. The weather was absolutely divine, as well as the food! It was such a lovely opportunity to all sit down together outside of the office and get to know each other more. We rewarded ourselves for all our hard work, having exceeded our quarterly targets, both for sales and our client service standards. We are excited about the ongoing growth of our team and the continuing expansion of Next Phase in the fascinating worlds of ATMP, Biotech and MedTech! Fancy joining our team? Please get in touch! #nextphase #growth #target #achievement #progression #london #teamworkOur day job is about helping people with their career paths… but yesterday we branched out into flaring ACTUAL paths! 🛤 As part of our ongoing commitment to volunteering in the local community, our Next Phase gardeners spent a few hours widening a path in Horsham Park. The most rewarding part was when an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair came past, saying he hadn’t been able to use this section of path in a long time. This was really heartwarming, and a reminder that relatively small jobs like this can have a huge impact on people’s well-being. Thanks to the wonderful people at Friends of Horsham for organising this! 💚 #nextphase #volunteering #peoplefirst #communityThe award for the best costume goes to……???? 🦸‍♀️ 🦸‍♂️ Last Thursday our whole Next Phase team took part in a team building day at Arena Pursuits in Kent. We had an absolute blast!💥 Raft building, quad biking and various problem-solving activities. It included many laughs and all of us being able to get to know each other on a more personal level. Last week was Children’s Hospice week and our chosen charity, @chestnuttreehouse, asked everyone to become a superhero for the day to raise awareness of all their little superhero’s. Therefore, as a team we decided to all dress up for our team building day to show our support. 🧡 #nextphase #teambuilding #teamwork #charity #support #superheroOur volunteering journey continues at our local park 🌳 However, this time we got to do it on a lovely hot summer’s morning in the sunshine!☀️🌷 We were informed that Horsham Park has entered a competition and the park will be judged next Tuesday. Therefore, our job was to make sure everything looked neat and tidy by pulling out weeds, trimming back bushes to make sure they do not hang over the fences and having some training on how to use a mattock so we could then get the stumps out of the ground 🪵💪🏼 To our surprise we also saw the new baby ducks that had hatched from their eggs that we came across the last time we volunteered which was a lovely sight🦆 This is such a beautiful park, and we are so grateful that we are able to help out where we can and cannot wait to complete our next and final session! 🤩✨ #nextphase #volunteering #localpark #tidy #teamwork #nature #summer

CSR

As a company, we are passionate about giving back to the local community and charities, and recently launched our volunteer and charity programme which gives staff paid time away from the office to help out locally and encourages everyone in the company to get involved in fundraising activities. This year we have selected Chestnut Tree House and Macmillan as our chosen charities and are embarking on a number of charity events throughout the year. Our team have also signed up to volunteer in the local community in a number of different areas; including Age UK, a local youth centre and to help keep the local park clean and tidy.
