Donating to a good cause you care about not only benefits the charities themselves, it can be deeply rewarding. As a business, we have found that our charity work has had a positive impact on both staff and customers. In 2017 a survey of 1,100 people from the UK by Forresters identified that most consumers think businesses should support charities. And when faced with a choice between two companies offering products/services for the same price, 82% said their decision would be based on who engaged with charities and the local community. However, at Lazy Susan, we wanted this to be more than just some PR exercise. We really wanted to do some good, and that is why we aligned ourselves with charities that were close to our heart. Charities we believed in, and to which we felt some affinity.

We were recently approached by ITV’s ‘Love Your Garden’ to see if we could donate garden furniture for an episode featuring a local lady who lives close to our head office. Betty, is a 90-year-old lady from Fareham, who is partially blind from macular degeneration, and spends her time volunteering to help others who suffer from the same disease. She can often be found abseiling to raise funds and awareness for the Fareham Macular Society. Yes, you read the right, abseiling at 90, simply incredible. Betty is one remarkable lady!

The Lazy Susan blog has been up and running for around 6 years or so. We’ve invested a considerable amount of time in the content we publish. So I wanted to try and explain in a little more detail why Lazy Susan blog? What started as a way to improve our position in Google has evolved into so much more. Of course search engines are massively important to our business. We’re an online company, we need traffic. We need consumers to find our shop when they search for garden furniture. However, sometimes you can feel a little held to ransom by the search engines.

The fact that 1 in 10 people in the world lack access to clean water is simply shocking to us here at Lazy Susan. A staggering 663 million people in the world live without clean water. This is 2017?! Well at least charity: water are on a mission to change that. That’s nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide too. Or to put it another way, twice the population of the United States. The majority live in isolated rural areas, where they can spend hours each day just walking to collect water for their family.
