Worcestershire Ambassadors: Celebrating 25 Years of Giving Back
Thank you to our 2025 Key Sponsors:
Jim McBride, BEM
Chair
Worcestershire Ambassadors work in partnership with or in support of established leading county organisations such as the County/District/City Councils, the Chamber of Commerce, the Local Enterprise Partnership, University and more recently the One Worcestershire campaign.
We have an enviable track record of raising significant funds to help support local charities and more recently in the sponsorship of good causes throughout our County. This can only be achieved with the remarkable and continued efforts of our wonderful membership and supporters.
Each year we develop a varied programme of events to bring our members and their guests together to help achieve our objectives. We also work hard to promote and support our member’s charitable interests and those of charities across the county.
We also believe that it is important to have fun in achieving whichever goals we set ourselves.
25 Years of Impact: Celebrating the History and Achievements of Worcestershire Ambassadors
Whilst looking forward to celebrating our 25th anniversary, we feel it right to look back and pen an abridged history containing a few of the highlights over the period. The achievements owe everything to the many board members and event planners, the fantastic sponsors and auction bidders and the many thousands of members who over the years have joined our organisation to promote all aspects of our great county and without whose help and generosity none of the achievements over the last 24 years would have been possible.
Sincere thanks to all of you.
To raise over £1.25m is an astonishing achievement bringing significant benefits to thousands across the county. From supporting St Richards with firstly the Thames 50k challenge to becoming partners for the launch of both “the Giraffes” and “ the Penguins” to the funding of PSA testing for many thousands of men and eventually seeing the surgical robotic capability installed into the Alexander hospital with support and donations above £100,000.
From heading 2 trade missions to China to rebuilding/rededicating the Gheluvelt Memorial outside Ypres, the Ambassadors have taken their work around the world. Closer to home, large donations over the years have included St Pauls Hostel, Worcester Breast Unit
Worcestershire Community Foundation and the £100,000 raised in just 11 weeks for 6 Foodbanks under the slogan “Help us feed those in need”.
We should all take pride in looking back however 2025 promises to offer great new challenges for Worcestershire Ambassadors to achieve.
As we look to 2025, we’re excited to take on new challenges and continue making Worcestershire a better place.
Over the last 25 years we have been proud to make Worcestershire a better place to live, work, invest, visit, and do business. Together, we’ve raised an incredible £1.25 million, giving back to local charities and communities across the county. This milestone reflects our unwavering commitment to creating a brighter future for Worcestershire.
