#TeamHARIBO

At The Together Project, we believe joy is something worth sharing and thanks to our brilliant partners at HARIBO UK, that joy is now reaching even more people across West Yorkshire, which HARIBO has called home for over 50 years.

We’re excited to be working with HARIBO, a brand which seeks to bring people together and create moments of childlike happiness, on a unique partnership that combines support for Songs & Smiles with a lively employee engagement programme putting community and connection at the heart of everything.

With their support, we’ll be running additional weekly Songs & Smiles sessions in six care homes across West Yorkshire, which were nominated by HARIBO colleagues who have a special connection to the care homes, helping to reduce loneliness and bring generations together through music, fun and friendship.

But that’s not all. #TeamHARIBO are bringing the energy outside care homes too! This quarter, they took on the York 10K, among other fundraising challenges such bungee jumping in Whitby and an inflatable 5k in Leeds, all raising over £1500as well as awareness for our work. These were all part of HARIBO’s commitment to long term partnerships with the local community, team building and childlike happiness. (Read the full story in The York Press)

Earlier in the year, the team bounced their way through an inflatable obstacle course, and we can’t wait to see what they’ll do next.

To everyone at HARIBO who’s nominated, donated, trained, cheered, run or bounced: thank you. You’re helping us create magical moments and long-lasting friendships across generations in West Yorkshire.
