Three South East builders’ merchants, Parker Building Supplies, Chandlers Building Supplies, and Fairalls Builders Merchants, have together raised £30,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust throughout 2025.
The fundraising total is the result of a year‑long programme of activities across branches, head office teams, suppliers, and customers, from sponsored challenges, charity raffles and auctions, supplier partnership events, and in branch‑ competitions.
A formal cheque presentation took place with representatives from Teenage Cancer Trust, celebrating the continued partnership and the generosity of customers, suppliers and colleagues across the group.
Graham Pitts, Key Accounts Director at IBMG, the overall group that the three merchants form part of, said: “We are incredibly proud of the dedication shown by our teams and the generosity of everyone who contributed. Teenage Cancer Trust provides vital support to young people and their families, and we’re honoured to play a part in helping them continue their life‑changing work.”
Faye Mullins who was present for the cheque presentation is also running the London Marathon to raise funds for the charity, which previously helped her through her own diagnosis. Donations are open now.
