Marking the first stop of ACT : On Tour in London

Last week, ACT arrived in London on the first official stop of our series of pop-up exhibitions, ACT : On Tour, taking over Minster Court in the City.

A showcase of the stories behind ACT over the past nine years, the exhibition stood pride of place in the circular Atrium in the Minster Court building, home of Price Forbes, demonstrating the amazing charitable efforts of colleagues in London. There was plenty of opportunity to truly immerse in the far-reaching impact of ACT, with videos, interactives, objects and even music to bring to life the meaning and impact behind just some of the causes closes to our people.

As part of the two-day exhibition, ACT hosted an evening drinks event to provide an extra special chance for colleagues to explore the pop-up. Watch the video to get a sense of the evening and the exhibition.

 

At the event, Price Forbes Chairman, Paul Longhurst, gave a personal account of the meaning of ACT to him, recounting his experience being part of the Ride4Life cycling team, which has raised over £90,000, including ACT match funding, for a range of causes since the first ride in 2016. Paying testament to what's possible when colleagues unite in the spirit of giving back, it was a fitting way to mark the first stop of the travelling exhibition.

The Atrium at Minster Court provided the perfect setting for the first destination of ACT's travelling exhibition.
Price Forbes chairman, Paul Longhurst, spoke about his own connection to ACT through the annual charity cycle event, Ride4Life, which has raised over £90,000 to date, including support from ACT.
Members of the Price Forbes Charity Committee celebrated their actions in support of several causes over the past three years.
There were a range of interactive exhibits, including a chance to explore the ACT Bright Future Prize and the 45+ young people from around the globe the initiative has supported to date.
The drinks event provided a fantastic opportunity to engage with ACT's story and the far reaching impact colleagues, together the Trust, have had over the past nine years.
From London to Liverpool, the next stop on ACT : On Tour's journey of The Ardonagh Group.

At each location ACT : On Tour visits over 2026, a donation will be made to a chosen cause. In London, ACT is delighted to donate £500 to Price Forbes' charity partner, Alzheimer's Society.

Thank you to everyone in London, and beyond, who was a part of a fantastic start to the exhibition's journey ahead.

The tour continues

Next up, ACT : On Tour will head to Liverpool for the annual Bravo Networks Conference from 25–26 February, before embarking on a very special route across the rest of the UK and Ireland.

Later in the year, the exhibition will then set off to Europe and beyond to reach as many Ardonagh colleagues as possible.

We'll be sharing highlights from ACT : On Tour's travels throughout 2026, so look out on the ACT website for further updates over the months ahead.

Making impact year-round

No matter the time of year, ACT is here to help all Ardonagh employees across the world give back bigger and better to the causes special to them.

Through programmes accessible to all Ardonagh's colleagues, including ACT grants, match funding and volunteering leave, we empower our people to make a difference to the people, places and communities closest to their hearts.
