We’re Ardonagh Community Trust. Or as we like to call ourselves, ACT.

As the non-profit arm of The Ardonagh Group, we channel the commitment and spirit of our global Ardonagh employees into initiatives that make the world a better place.

From the first ACT...

We are colleagues and friends. Customers and clients. Uncles and aunts. Sisters and brothers. Sons and daughters. Young and old. We are the loved and the loving. We are the grieving and the hopeful.

We dare to imagine change for good.
We dare to ACT for impact.
We ACT.

What we do

ACT gives Ardonagh people the opportunity to raise money for charities and causes close to their hearts.

We take the local efforts of Ardonagh colleagues and amplify their impact through six inclusive and accessible actions: Match Funding, Volunteering, Community Grants, Charity Partnerships, Sustainability and our Bright Future Prize.

Mission

Our goal is to ensure that every Ardonagh employee makes a difference by initiating or participating in an ACT project during their time with us.

Led by our values of humanity, authenticity and impact, we will continue to invest company time, talent and resources to strengthen and expand the actions upon which our people’s charitable work is founded.

Memorial statue created in memory of Eilidh MacLeod, clay model before casting

The first ACT: We worked with the Eilidh MacLeod Memorial Trust to create a statue to honour Eilidh’s life and her love of music after she died in the Manchester bombing in 2017.

Our People: Every Ardonagh colleague is given the opportunity to spend one day a year volunteering in their chosen communities.

Our story

ACT is the registered charity from which The Ardonagh Group supports targeted, community-focused charitable activities.

Ardonagh people are driven by a spirit of opportunity. We launched ACT in 2017 to help channel that spirit into causes that not just impact communities, society and the environment but reward our people at a personal level, too.
