Backing Second Chances: Supporting the Howarths Foundation

At LBBC, we believe in the power of business to make a positive difference — not just within our industry, but in the wider community. That’s why we’re proud to support the incredible work of the Howarths Foundation and to contribute, in our own way, to such a vital cause.

The Howarths Foundation was established with a clear and compassionate mission: to help individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness find a way back into sustainable, meaningful employment. Through practical support, guidance, and close partnerships with local businesses, the foundation helps people rebuild their confidence, gain essential skills, and take that first crucial step toward stability and independence.

We’re especially pleased to continue our support of the Business Building Futures initiative — a programme run by the foundation that brings together like-minded companies committed to creating real opportunities for those in need of a second chance. The initiative has helped many individuals find long-term employment, offering not just jobs, but hope and dignity.

Being involved in this programme is a privilege. At its heart, it’s about recognising potential where others may see obstacles, and about businesses playing an active role in building stronger, more inclusive communities.

We look forward to continuing our partnership with the Howarths Foundation and encourage other organisations to learn more about the important work they do.
