At Craghoppers we believe honesty, courtesy & respect are critical in all the decisions we make with customers, colleagues and workers in our factories We are doing what we can, when we can, to look after our planet. This means we're committed to creating great global products in a sustainable way and to making positive progress every year. As 2024 draws to a close, we wanted to share just some of the highlights we have achieved across sustainability, charity and conservation, these include funding 188 hours of private therapy for ex veterans Walking With The Wounded, repairing 131 products through our repair partner Timpson Group and saving 8,500 litres of water through reviewing our dyeing techniques and processes. A huge team effort across departments and something we couldn't do alone. #craghoppers #mindfullymade #conservation #sustainability

An amazing team effort shown yesterday by the team Walking Home for Christmas raising money for Walking With The Wounded. Thankfully the Manchester weather was on our side and we raised over £2000. Thank you to everyone who took part and donated.
I'm not a winter man. I wouldn't describe myself as a grinch (my team and wife might beg to differ) but I love the summer, the light, warmth and long days. But I do love the opportunity at this time of year to get out with our partners and supporters and undertake a walk with them, with the opportunity to say thank you in person for their efforts. Today it was my privilege to join Clare Grimshaw Charlotte Jackson and the amazing team at Craghoppers in Manchester who were out out on there #WalkingHome walk for Walking With The Wounded in aid of the wounded veterans and their loved ones we support. Fired up by Joel Oxberry at HQ who gave an amazing client impact story, the team and I did a 5 mile walk along the canal to the cenotaph. The passion and enthusiasm from a company that shares many of my personal values is amazing to see and over £1,200 has been raised so far from this walk and their wonderful staff. Lots of impactful adventures together to come in 2025 but for now thank you again for your amazing efforts. Happy Christmas to all at Craghoppers!

On Thursday 12th December, this lovely Craghoppers lot (and more) will be Walking Home for Christmas to raise awareness and valuable funds for our partners, Walking With The Wounded. We will be walking the 5.5 miles along the canal from our offices to the Cenotaph in Manchester City Centre, raising money for this amazing charity and the fantastic work they do for service men and women and their families. If this strikes a chord with you, then please support through this link. Any donation small (or big) will be gratefully received. Thank you and Merry Christmas! https://lnkd.in/dqhiBZUd

Today marks International Day of Persons with Disabilities, as a company we are very proud to support and work alongside Experience Community CIC a not-for-profit organisation which helps disabled people access green space and the countryside. Working with the team at the National Trust where at Longshaw Estate they have been able to improve access to the site and really embody the National Trust ethos of “For everyone, forever”. At Craghoppers we are firm believers that the outdoors is there to be enjoyed by everyone and have been working with Experience Community since 2020 with Craig Grimes as a brand ambassador, raising awareness around the challenges disabled people face when accessing the great outdoors. We made a short film with Craig and the team at Longshaw exploring the work they have done on the estate. https://lnkd.in/eAbcEXsb

We are very proud to support Kevin and his foundation Kevin Richardson Foundation. This is the 3rd film released in Kevin's Day in the Life series and you get to learn something new every time. Please give it a watch.
A very special Day In The Life video was recently published on the Craghoppers YouTube channel and as part of a Lion Whisperer Instagram collaboration. Not only does it shed some light on how important the Kevin Richardson Foundation's work is for wildlife conservation, it also highlights how Craghoppers support Kevin and the foundation's work, including the recently launched Endangered Wildlife Trust Carnivore Conservation Programme in the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa. Learn more and catch up with some of The Sanctuary's residents below #wildlife #conservation #sustainable https://lnkd.in/eup6mmq6

This is Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew - Wakehurst. Back in March, we helped launch the search for 10 young people to accompany Phoebe Smith (FRGS) and Dwayne Fields (FRGS) on an expedition of a lifetime with their #wetwo foundation. Fast forward 7 months and this is Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew - Wakehurst and a new team of 10 young people who on 22nd October started their trip to Galapagos. The team went hiking, planting wildflower seeds and became the first people to camp in the grounds of Wakehurst! They also found out more about what flora and fauna they will be seeing on the Galápagos Islands. All this before catching their first flight to Ecuador. Spiral Out Pictures will be documenting the trip throughout.
