Croydon-based builders’ merchant Harris & Bailey recently established a year-long partnership with “Hear Us Croydon,” a local charity that supports people experiencing mental health challenges. This collaboration is part of the company’s commitment to the wider Croydon community, moving beyond its role as a traditional business to address social well-being. Harris & Bailey, which has been part of the borough’s fabric since 1913, uses this partnership to provide funding and awareness for mental health services that are often under great demand. By aligning with Hear Us, the business helps provide a voice for vulnerable residents and supports local mental health advocacy. This “good deed” reflects a growing trend of long-term corporate philanthropy in Croydon, where established businesses leverage their success to provide stability for local charitable organizations.
