Community Commitment & Charitable Giving
As proud Bathonians, the Directors of Stones Group have always been passionate about giving back to the community that supports them. This ethos is deeply embedded in the culture of the company and is reflected in our ongoing support for a range of charitable, educational, and community-focused initiatives in and around Bath.l.
Bath Rugby Foundation
Stones Group is a proud sponsor of the Bath Rugby Foundation, an inspiring organisation that promotes rugby across all age groups and backgrounds within the club’s extensive catchment area. Rugby holds a special place in Bath’s social and cultural identity, serving as a unifying force for local residents, sports fans, and visitors alike.
Through our annual sponsorship, we support the Foundation’s efforts to provide inclusive opportunities in sport, helping to strengthen community ties and empower individuals across the region.
Forever Friends Appeal – RUH Bath
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Stones Group team raised over £4,000 for the Forever Friends Appeal at the Royal United Hospital in Bath. In a light-hearted but impactful fundraising campaign, several team members volunteered to have their heads shaved and dyed in one of Stones Group’s four brand colours — much to the amusement of colleagues, clients, and the wider community.
The campaign generated local media interest and widespread social media support, raising funds and lifting spirits during a difficult time.
Freshford Church School - Near Bath
James & Sarah Stones’ two daughters both attend Freshford Community School so it is appropriate that Stones Group is an active contributor to the running of the school, particularly in terms of helping out with various maintenance projects. The company also funded vital walled (and branded) sanitisers during the COVID-19 outbreak which prompted the following ‘thank you’ email from the Chair of the Governors:
Dear James & Sarah,
I am writing on behalf of the Governors to thank you so much for the wonderful additions you have made to the school!
The Headmaster sent me (and all the staff) some pictures of the walled sanitisers this morning; they look both practical as well as rather beautiful, you’ve even included the school logo! Thank you so much.
These are strange times, but I can tell you have helped to alleviate many health and safety concerns from the staff regarding the impending opening. And, by so generously providing the means by which our children can come into school again, we are some way now on the road back to normality.
Once these days are behind us, I would like to shake your hand (…or some other socially acceptable means!) to express my gratitude in person.
In the meantime, thank you so much from the Governors, the staff and of course, from our children.
Best wishes, with my grateful thanks.
Clare Ford
