Roland DG (UK) used Sign and Digital UK this year by committing a number of its machines to producing banners for two UK charities: Ronald McDonald House Charities and Children’s Hospice South West throughout.
“We were delighted to be able help these two charities raise their profile by using our machines at the show to output a range of stunning, high quality, marketing collateral for these two wonderful charities,” said Mark Elvidge, print product manager at Roland DG.
He and the Roland DG team chose to support Ronald McDonald House Charities following his own positive experience at the Ronald McDonald House Charities’ house in Manchester, when his daughter, Grace, was battling leukaemia.
Lauren Gotlieb, marketing and communications manager for Ronald McDonald House Charities said: “Support can come in many forms and this generous donation of banners from Roland DG will help us raise awareness of the charity, a key priority for us this year. In order to provide free ‘home away from home’ accommodation for families with children in hospital we rely on fundraisers, donors and volunteers to keep our 14 Ronald McDonald Houses open. We’d like to thank Mark and everyone at Roland DG for all their support.”
Children’s Hospice South West is a charity that has been supported by Roland DG (UK) employees at their offices for a number of years. Proceeds from the company’s employee tuck shop are donated to the charity each year, with the employee donation doubled by the company each time.
