Elevation Partners with The CWC for Fifth Year and Launches Challenge Fundraising

Establishing a funding agreement with The CWC in early 2021, Elevation continues to support and share the vision of The CWC, who are meeting an ever-increasing demand for crisis support grants.  Since 2020 The CWC has given over £6.5 million in grants to over 13,100 care workers in need.

The Elevation team has extended its backing by taking part in fundraising events including The CWC Annual Trek, with a substantial amount raised, and Elevation was delighted to be a Top Three Fundraiser at the National Care Awards in November 2024.  This September, Team Elevation will be completing a marathon trek across the Thames Path and Chiltern Hills, as well as other events throughout the year.

Karolina Gerlich, Chief Executive Officer of The CWC, stated: “We are incredibly grateful to have Elevation’s continued support during such a critical time for the social care sector.  As the cost-of-living crisis continues to affect care workers across the country, partnerships like this are essential to help us meet growing demand. Elevation’s generosity allows us to extend our reach and provide meaningful support to those who need it most.  This renewed sponsorship is a reflection of our shared commitment to the wellbeing of care workers, and we are truly excited to continue this impactful collaboration. Their support has already changed lives—and will undoubtedly continue to do so in the year ahead.”

Jacob Hurtley, ESG Director of Elevation said: “There are almost 2 million care workers in the UK who attend to the most vulnerable members of our society.  As specialist investors in healthcare, we understand the essential role they play in maintaining safety and infection control, along with their contribution to care quality. We greatly admire the work and vision of The CWC whose crisis grants provide assistance to professionals encountering unexpected financial difficulties, and whose work to the elevate the profile of the sector at a governmental level is inspiring. The work that has been completed in the last 12 months to bring carers’ voices to the forefront on the future of adult social care, demonstrates the importance of continued support for all those in the healthcare sector. We are excited to have the opportunity to back their important work and would urge people to donate to the fundraising trek in September – we are grateful for all donations, which will help support their vital work.”
