2Excel Aviation Ltd

Cadets on the road again with help from Community Fund. 2Excel is committed to being a sustainable and responsible employer in the communities in which it operates, whilst enhancing the experience of everyone and everything interacting with the business. London Southend Airport is one of the Company’s operating bases and whilst working at the site, Flight Engineer Steve Armson learned that the local RAF Air Cadets (RAFAC) were without their own transport due to the theft of the Squadron’s minibus. Fundraising was progressing well, but they were short of the target so Steve, himself a Flying Officer with RAFAC in his home town in Nottinghamshire, approached the Company’s Community Fund to see if it could support this initiative. Steve said: “The minibus was used to transport cadets to activities such as competitions, sporting events, Duke of Edinburgh award expeditions, flying and gliding from RAF bases, and multiple camps throughout the UK and more. “Being an Air Cadet provides such great opportunities for young people, teaching life and social skills, and leadership, as well as being a springboard into a possible future career. I was an Air Cadet from the age of 13 before joining the RAF, so perfectly understood the benefits of participating in all these activities and thought it wholly unfair that the callous action of thieves could jeopardise this.” Flight Lieutenant Joanne Busby, Commanding Officer of the 1312 Southend on Sea Squadron, said: “Without our own minibus additional transportation costs had to be met by the fundraising efforts of the Squadron and, as a charitable organisation, this could not continue indefinitely. “This kind donation by 2Excel means that we have been able to meet our target to secure a safe, reliable minibus and can also afford to insure and service it for the next year. “Thank you to Steve and 2Excel from the Squadron, as this means our young people can continue to benefit from their time with RAFAC.” As a commitment to its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) agendas, 2Excel launched its Community Fund to provide a fair and transparent mechanism for Company funding to be allocated to charitable causes, aiming to empower employees to nominate the charities and good causes they care about most, whilst recognising the opportunities that arise from being a responsible business with positive social performance.   Pictured: Flight Engineer Steve Armson (L) and Flight Lieutenant Joanne Busby (R) with some of the Air Cadets from 1312 Southend on Sea Squadron #aircadets #community #support

Today is the International Day of Charity, and we are proud to celebrate our partnerships with a number of different, but equally fantastic, charities that align with our Company’s social value commitments and aspirations. We have been working alongside Aerobility for many years. It is a charity that enables people with disabilities to have access to the magic and wonder of flight, as well as providing advice, knowledge and advocacy for disabled people who wish to fly and acting as the representative body for disabled aviation within the UK. We understand that mental health matters and any one of us can experience low mental health or experience a crisis. This is why we have partnered with Don’t Lose Hope, a charity offering professional counselling services for all members of the community from age 4 upwards. This is a free service for families/individuals receiving certain state benefits and affordable to all others. The aviation industry is a rapidly growing and diverse environment. This is why we love partnering with The Air League, as its mission is to inspire young people interested in the aviation industry by awarding scholarships and CV enhancing opportunities.   We are proud that more than 25% of our staff are ex-military. This is one of the reasons why we are partnered with the Royal Air Forces Association, a charity that supports serving and ex-serving members of the RAF family, to make sure that everyone within that community has access to help if they need it. We look forward to further growing these charity relationships and supporting one another in the best way we can.
