Paperless Policies continue to make hearts beat thanks to Caravan Guard

Halifax-based Leisure insurance specialists, Caravan Guard and Leisuredays, have been raising money for Heart Research UK for more than a decade by donating £1 to the charity each time a new caravan, campervan or motorhome insurance customer opts for their policy documents to be emailed rather than posted.

Heart Research UK say thank you to Caravan Guard.

In 2020, its “Paperless Policies” campaign raised a record breaking £20,358 – the most it’s ever raised in a 12-month period.

In the same year, the Halifax-based company also celebrated insuring more than 105,000 customers.

Heart Research UK recorded a special thank you video to staff to show their enormous appreciation for the incredible fundraising efforts of Caravan Guard.

The total amount gifted to the charity in the last 11 years is a whopping £131,750.

Even though the Coronavirus pandemic put a stop to many fundraising activities, the kind-hearted staff also took part in the national 2.6 challenge and ran a hamper competition to top up their charity efforts.

Associate Director Laura Wilby said they were delighted to have been able to raise a record-breaking amount of money in what has been such a difficult year for many.

“We’re absolutely thrilled to be writing a cheque for more than £20,000 this year for a charity which is very close to our hearts,” said Laura. “Having seen and heard first hand how our money is spent we’re also very grateful to our customers who chose to go paperless so we can pass on this incredible sum of money to help with the prevention, treatment and cure of heart disease.”
