Side by Side - Aramark Defence Services

Aramark Defence Services, a 'soft services' provider to the Ministry of Defence, has committed to an annual calendar of fundraising activities for SSAFA.

Side By Side, part of the Aramark Defence Services (ADS) proudly operates with the Defence sectors within the UK specializing in catering, retail and facility management.

ADS asked their teams to nominate a Corporate Charity Partner and SSAFA was an obvious choice because ADS look after the needs of the military community in all three forces. The partnership was officially launched with a fundraising tool kit sent to everyone of ADS’s 60 major Defence establishments full of ideas on volunteering and raising over 188K with the goal to raise £250,000 across 5 years.

Glyn Ingram, Defence and Judicial Sector Director for Aramark UK said: “This achievement is testament to all of the Side-by-Side team at Aramark. Their commitment to this cause is amazing, going out of their way to make a difference. Their activities and engagement with customers, colleagues and clients brings about a great deal of energy, which is directed at delivering on behalf of SSAFA.

“Our teams are proud to support SSAFA, especially as such a large part of our business is defence based. We look forward to continuing to raise funds and embrace activities to make a difference.”
