Giving Back
Charitable Giving
Partners and staff regularly donate to charities, some examples of charities we support include:
The Peace Hospice – On match days Highwood allows members of Watford FC’s President’s Club to park in our private car park in exchange for a donation to their chosen charity. We have since raised over £20,000 for Peace Hospice Care, including a generous donation from the Partners of the firm.
Holocaust Educational Trust – The Holocaust Educational Trust is a British charity, based in London, whose aim is to “educate young people of every background about the Holocaust and the important lessons to be learned for today.”
Tzedek – Working to reduce extreme poverty in some of the poorest regions of the world to create long-term, sustainable change.
Highwood staff often organise fundraisers for various charities including MacMillan Cancer Support, Breast Cancer Care, Kidney Research UK and others.
