About Horizon Fund
The Horizon Fund is all about looking after the place we call home. In partnership with Focus Foundation, we’re helping to fund local projects that bring people together, protect our coastline, and make Brighton a brighter, fairer city for everyone. The fund is designed so your donations go further. We don’t focus on just one charity, instead, by bringing together donations from our employees, suppliers, and customers, we can reach a wider range of local causes and make an even bigger difference.
Last quarter, we have raised £14,9420 to support underprivileged children and young people
