The initial goal of 28,835 days reflects the average number of days in a lifetime and was designed to support Elior UK’s focus on enriching lives through everyday actions. During the campaign, Elior has raised over £125,000 for charity, including £28,187 for its current partner the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation.
In 2025 alone, Elior donated £17,097 to Water Unite through micro-donations from water bottle and can sales, contributing to a total of £172,675 donated since 2019. The contract caterer has also delivered 189 healthy eating sessions to schoolchildren across the country and planted 5,143 trees with JUST ONE Tree.
Following the success of the inaugural campaign, Elior is launching Lifetime of Enrichment’s next phase, tripling its original target with the aim of delivering an additional 57,670 days of social value by 2030.
The initiative aims to educate and empower colleagues across the business about the role they can play in delivering social value, ensuring individual contributions are visible, valued and collectively impactful.
Elior UK operates catering contracts across the B&I, health & care home, defence, education, stadia and heritage sectors. Six colleagues recently completed the London Landmarks Half Marathon, raising over £3,500 for the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation.
Charlotte Wright, director of CSR & food strategy at Elior UK, said: “Surpassing our original target for the campaign is a proud moment for everyone at Elior, reflecting our workforce’s commitment to making a positive difference through everyday actions. The new 2030 target is a challenge we will relish as we continue to seek new ways of delivering social value across the organisation."
