Raworths' connection to Harrogate and surrounding area is deep rooted and we are committed to being ambassadors in our community.
This is a look at the charities we champion, the events we sponsor and the causes our people throw themselves behind.
Championing local charities
We are proud to support Harrogate Hospital & Community Charity as our official charity partner. Our team took on a full calendar of fundraising - from bake sales to rather more ambitious challenges such as the Yorkshire Three Peaks.
We also sponsored the inaugural Yorkshire Cancer Research centenary gala dinner, helping to raise vital funds for life-saving research that reaches every corner of the county.
Our connection to Saint Michael’s Hospice spans several years and we are proud to be a Silver Hospice Care Champion and part of a community of businesses helping families living with terminal illness and bereavement.
We were proud to support Henshaws Secret Garden Appeal last year by sponsoring a special fundraising event aimed at raising funds to create two new arts workshops.
Supporting the arts
Sponsorship, for us, is never simply about a logo on a programme. It is about backing the people and organisations that make our region a richer, more vibrant place to live and work.
From literature to live music, we are proud to back the region’s cultural life.
Raworths Harrogate Literature Festival is now truly established as an integral fixture in the town’s diverse programme of events. We are so proud to be sponsors of this truly special Festival since 2012 and see it continue to go from strength to strength.
Continuing our longstanding partnership with Harrogate International Festivals, we are delighted to become the new title sponsor of the popular Salon North for 2026/2027.
We also committed to supporting the newly established Cuore Chamber Orchestra in its inaugural season.
A milestone in sustainability
After significant contribution and great teamwork by everyone at Raworths, our office was officially verified as carbon neutral - a significant milestone that reflects a determined, ongoing commitment to reducing our footprint and doing right by the community we serve.
There is always more to do. But as we look ahead, we do so grateful for the partnerships we have built, and more committed than ever to playing our part.
