Supporting the Reading community

Haslams has been part of the local community in Reading for over 180 years, and we understand that as a part of the place where we live and work, we should support local businesses and charities wherever and whenever we can.

ReadiFood

As part of Haslams’ ongoing commitment to support the local community and help make a difference, we have made a donation to local foodbank ReadiFood to pay for their van hire so they can continue to provide and deliver food parcels for those in need across the greater Reading area.

RABBLE Theatre 

RABBLE Theatre is a Reading-based theatre company that plays an essential role in our community for all age groups, from hosting workshops and classes to performing incredible 5-star shows. Most importantly, they have a strong focus on helping young people and adults from varied socio-economic backgrounds to get into theatre, and that is why we feel so strongly about supporting them.

Launchpad

Originally founded in 1979 by students at the University of Reading, Launchpad provides support for vulnerable people in the town with any housing-related problems to help and encourage people to lead independent lives, including legal advice and temporary homes. Over the years, Haslams has participated in various fundraisers for the charity including a Dragon Boat Race and a Christmas Giving Tree, to raise money and provide gifts for Launchpad’s clients.
