FMJ Facilities Management magazine providing industry-specific intelligence to FM and property professionals
In its first year, the Foundation will support Smart Works Leeds and Prostate Cancer UK – two charities close to the hearts of the Litmus FM team.
Smart Works Leeds is a local branch of Smart Works Charity, a fast-growing national charity that exists to support all women who need help getting into work. It provides free interview-appropriate clothing, one-to-one coaching, and confidence-building support to help unemployed women secure job offers and take the next step in their careers. The charity is supported by Litmus FM Consultant Director Kate Davis, who volunteers as an interview and career coach.
Prostate Cancer UK is the leading charity working to raise awareness of the most common cancer in men, fund vital research, campaign for change, and provide much-needed information and support. Litmus FM Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer John Brownless is an ambassador and long-standing volunteer for the charity, having raised over £200,000 to support its work. One in eight men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.
Brownless said: “When we established Litmus FM as a standalone business last year, we always knew we wanted charitable giving to be woven into our fabric. Launching the Litmus FM Foundation is a significant milestone for us and one we’re hugely proud of.
“Both Smart Works Leeds and Prostate Cancer UK carry out extraordinary work that changes lives every day. As a business with more women than men on our board – in what is still a typically male-dominated sector – it feels especially important for us to support charities that empower women, as well as those that champion men’s health. We’re honoured to back both organisations and look forward to seeing the positive impact our Foundation can make as Litmus FM continues to grow.”
Facilities & Estates Management Live will open its doors on 7th and 8th October at the Business Design Centre in London.
Brought to you by the people behind the Facilities Management Journal (FMJ), visitors can tour the exhibition stands featuring some of the leading FM service providers & product suppliers as well as enjoy a lively seminar programme.
There are two concurrent speaking schedules at the show: A series of KEYNOTE talks from thought leaders in FM and the built environment and a series of INNOVATION presentations from key suppliers in the market.
The programmes have been compiled by FMJ in consultation with members of the FMJ editorial steering group who represent client side FMs from a range of sectors, including public sector, not for profit, professional services and healthcare.
