At Crystal Galleries, we’re proud of the work we do as a business — but we’re just as proud of the people behind it. Beyond the day-to-day, many of our team members are doing amazing things in support of local and national charities. And this spring and summer, several are lacing up their trainers, grabbing a paddle and even donning a mascot costume — all for a good cause.
Here’s a look at some of the fantastic fundraising efforts happening across Team CG:
Throughout May, Jess is taking on the challenge of running 1 mile every day to raise money for the RNLI, supporting the charity’s vital work in saving lives at sea.
She’s aiming to raise £400 and is already pounding the pavements to make it happen. Whether it’s a sunny morning jog or a soggy evening shuffle, Jess is out there every day — and every donation helps keep the motivation high.

Next up, Emma is once again taking to the water for the Dragon Boat Race, raising funds for DKMS, a charity that helps fight blood cancer and disorders through stem cell donation.
She’ll be racing with her team later this summer, paddling hard to support patients in need of life-saving matches — and raising awareness for an incredible cause along the way.

As if one challenge wasn’t enough, Jess is also taking part in a mascot fun day run in aid of local charities — yes, in full mascot costume. It’s all part of her continued commitment to giving back and we’re pretty sure this one will be a crowd favourite (and make for some excellent photos).
💙 Supporting Causes That Matter
We’re incredibly proud of the commitment and energy our team puts into supporting these causes — and we know that many of our customers are just as passionate about making a difference.
If you’d like to support our team members, donate to one of their fundraisers, or simply cheer them on, we’d love to have you involved. Every step, stroke, and silly mascot sprint helps raise funds and awareness for charities that are truly designed to be remembered.
