Simon Acres Group has committed to not use any plastic for marketing merchandise at the KBB exhibition (01-04 March NEC Birmingham), and donate the money they would have spent, £5,000, to wellness charities. The move follows a recent KBB forum on ‘Wellness in the Workplace’, hosted by Simon Acres Group that raised awareness about how many people are affected by mental health issues and the impact this can have on business. Simon Acres Group principal director Simon Acres says, “We were so moved by the support from our guests at the forum that we wanted to continue the conversation about this taboo topic. We hope that visitors to our stand will support us and help us make a difference, one that could ultimately lead to saving lives.” The £5,000 donation will be allocated across three charities, based on the preferences of visitors. They will be able to select which of the three charities they would like to support when they visit the stand. The three charities that will benefit are TT Training – Children’s Mental Health, The Samaritans and Mind. Simon Acres Group can be found at stand N70. There will be an introductory 25% discount to all new clients who register at the show for any of the recruitment, training, digital marketing, films & photography or business consultancy services.
