A Black Country project management consultancy is marking its 10th anniversary by pledging support to Kids’ Village charity.
To mark the significant milestone, Kinver Solutions has agreed to donate one per cent of its annual turnover to support Kids’ Village, the Lichfield-based charity which will build the UK’s resort providing free breaks for critically-ill children.
This month marks 10 years since Dudley-headquartered Kinver Solutions was launched by husband and wife duo Darowen and Natasha Jones.
From 1 June 2024 to the end of May 2025, Kinver Solutions will donate a minimum of one per cent of its turnover to Kids’ Village, supporting the charity on its journey to raise the £5million required to build the facility.
As Kids’ Village’ dreams become a reality over the next year, Kinver Solutions and its team will also use its extensive specialist knowledge and connections across the region to champion the charity in addition to its financial support.
Kinver Solutions is hoping that this will generate at least £8,000 over the next 12 months.
Managing director Darowen Jones said:
As the business my wife and I created 10 years ago, grows and goes from strength to strength, we couldn’t see anything more fitting than at this incredible business milestone to support a charity that really means something to us, as a whole business but also as a family.
Kids’ Village mission stood out as something we couldn’t afford not to support. Respite care for families with critically ill children gives the chance for them to make memories that will stay with them for forever.
Kinver Solutions is incredibly proud to play a small but important part in making this dream a reality. Small businesses are the key to our local economy across the West Midlands.
It would be fantastic to see more of us small business owners contributing a % of turnover to supporting a charity like Kids’ Village and we hope our approach will encourage others to do the same.
Paul Faulkner, interim chief executive of Kids’ Village, said:
We are delighted that Kinver Solutions have chosen to support Kids’ Village in this extremely generous way as they celebrate 10 years in business.
That is quite the milestone for any organisation to reach and is testament to the qualities that Darowen and Natasha have instilled in the business and the great reputation that Kinver Solutions now enjoys.
Kids’ Village has great ambitions to make a positive difference in the lives of children with critical illnesses, and their families. In order to do that we first need to raise the £5million that will be required to build the Village on the 30 acres of land we have secured in Staffordshire.
Support from the corporate community will play a crucial part in raising that money, and we are thrilled that Kinver Solutions have made this commitment and developed this partnership with Kids’ “Village as a great example of how businesses of all shapes and sizes can support the charity and help make a difference.
Thank you to Darowen, Natasha and all of the Kinver Solutions team, and here’s to your next 10 years of business success.
