As we look ahead to a new year of fundraising and giving, we’re proud to announce Leeds Hospitals Charity as our charity partner for 2026.

But before we turn the page, it feels important to reflect on the impact of the year just gone and why partnering with a charity each year matters so much to us.

Reflecting on our 2025 partnership with PAPYRUS

Throughout 2025, we were honoured to support PAPYRUS, the UK charity dedicated to the prevention of suicide and the promotion of positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in young people.

Thanks to the energy, commitment and generosity of our team and supporters, we raised an incredible £10,140 for PAPYRUS. Over the year, that total was built through charity bike rides, marathons, bake sales, laptop sales, auctions, quiz nights and the Big Sleep Out. Every activity brought people together around a shared goal: supporting a charity doing truly life-saving work.

PAPYRUS provides confidential support through HOPELINE247, offering a lifeline to young people who are struggling and to those worried about someone else. Their work makes a real difference at the most critical moments, and we are immensely proud of what we were able to contribute in 2025.

Why we partner with a charity each year

At Answer Digital, giving back is part of who we are. Each year, we choose a charity partner to focus our fundraising, time and energy on making a meaningful impact rather than spreading efforts too thinly.

As an employee-owned business, it’s important to us that these decisions aren’t made in isolation. Our whole team has a say in who we support, ensuring everyone feels invested, included and motivated to get involved. That sense of shared ownership is what drives the creativity, commitment and enthusiasm behind every fundraising idea.

Introducing our 2026 charity partner: Leeds Hospitals Charity

For 2026, we are delighted to be partnering with Leeds Hospitals Charity, the official charity partner of Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.

Leeds Hospitals Charity supports all eight NHS Trusts across the Leeds region, helping them deliver the best possible care to patients and their families. They fund life-saving medical equipment, innovative treatments, research into rare and complex diseases, and the vital home comforts that can make an enormous difference to people during hospital stays.

From supporting cutting-edge clinical research to improving patient environments and family facilities, the charity focuses on whatever will have the greatest impact where it is needed most. Their work helps ensure that care across Leeds hospitals goes beyond clinical excellence, supporting dignity, comfort and compassion at every stage of a patient’s journey.

Looking ahead to a year of impact

Partnering with Leeds Hospitals Charity gives us the opportunity to support the NHS in our region in a very practical and meaningful way. Over the coming year, our team will once again come together to raise funds, awareness and support for the incredible work being done across Leeds hospitals.

We’re excited about what lies ahead and proud to stand alongside an organisation that makes such a tangible difference to patients, families and healthcare professionals every day.

To everyone who took part in fundraising in 2025, and to those already sharing ideas for 2026, thank you. We can’t wait to see what we achieve together in the year ahead.
