Richard Diliberto , Sales Director at Comp Door said , “ With the valued and much appreciated support of our loyal customers , employees , and wider network , managed to collate an office full of toys and gifts to help support our charity ’ s pledge to provide Christmas magic for local disadvantaged and vulnerable children aged 5-16 years old .”
Comp Door ’ s well-established relationship with The Hubb Foundation has been powerful in providing help and assistance to the underprivileged within their region over recent years .
Adam Yates , CEO of The Hubb Foundation explained , “ We work with Star Academy School in Sandyford regularly . The headteachers reached out to us to see if we could help after several of their families had expressed that they were really struggling to provide their children with Christmas presents .”

Christmas generosity from Quickslide

Quickslide ’ s Christmas festivities ended with a generous bang when the sum of £ 4765.75 was raised for GM Fundraising to bring joy and support the children and families of the Hope House Children ’ s Hospices as they navigate difficult times .
The company ’ s annual Christmas party hosted some 120 people – staff , suppliers , friends and family – who dug deep in their pockets for the raffle while being entertained by the world ’ s fastest hypnotist Chriss Caress – no underhand coercion there of course . At the end of the evening , no one went home empty handed , with raffle prizes including everything from London West End tickets to pepper grinders and screwdrivers .
We want to take this opportunity to thank our suppliers for the amazing generosity in donating some of the prizes , and to recognise the hard work and commitment of the Quickslide team .
