At Fluid, we understand that it’s not all about the merchandise.


It’s about what’s behind it: the fantastic people, their passions and the communities they support - that’s what makes our merchandise truly meaningful. 

So, when a member of our team does something wonderful, like, say, running a half marathon to raise money for the National Autistic Society, we’re there 100% supporting them every step of the way (literally!).

 

Nicki White’s half marathon fundraising success

On a gloriously sunny April weekend, our Senior Merchandise Director, Nicki White, did just that! 

On the 21st of April, Nicki took part in running a half marathon in aid of the National Autistic Society.

“It was a gorgeous day, a stunning route and my little cheerleaders were at the finish line!”

And what a finish it was - Nicki ended up completing her half marathon in an astonishing time of 2 hours and 14 minutes - well done, Nicki!

Who are the National Autistic Society?

The National Autistic Society do amazing work in helping to transform the lives of autistic people. 

From developing specialist schools, and campaigning for improved rights to offering workplace training on how to become more autism-friendly, they’re all about transforming lives and changing attitudes towards those with autism.

 

Why the National Autistic Society?

“I picked the National Autistic Society to show support to the autism community!

I have learned so much about autism since our youngest son's diagnosis and there’s so much still to be done to increase opportunities, reduce social isolation and build a brighter future for these amazing people!"

 

Nicki’s fundraising success

We’re happy to announce that Nicki has managed to raise a whopping  £825 so far for the National Autistic Society!

“I'm overwhelmed at the amount of donations so far! That was definitely at the front of my mind when I was running up a steep hill at mile 7!”

 

It’s all about giving back

We always want to encourage our Fluid Family to get involved with projects they feel passionate about. 

That's why, as part of our Fluid Futures pillar group, we've set up a Charity & Community Events Match Funding Scheme. 

This means that funds raised by members of the Fluid team for charitable causes will get matched pound-for-pound by Fluid Branding. Boom!
