Sequel are proud and active supporters of the Newman Trust, and we have helped to raise over £100,000 so far for the charity through our annual comedy nights and the other fund-raising events we organise throughout the year.  Employees are granted extra paid leave to allow them to volunteer for charitable work.

Established in 1981, the Newman Trust provides holidays for over 120 disabled children aged 5-16 each year, in various locations around the UK.

Due to the high level of skilled care they require or financial circumstances, the children selected for these breaks would not otherwise receive a holiday. The holidays provide a range of fun activities in a safe and supported environment and use a care ratio of one helper to one child at all times.

The Trust is an entirely voluntary organisation and owes its success to over 200 people who dedicate their free time to helping these children. This voluntary structure ensures that every penny raised goes directly towards a child’s holiday.
