We’re pleased to announce that this year FSB Insurance Service will be supporting Heart N Soul, an award-winning creative arts company and charity. They believe in the power and talents of people with learning disabilities, providing opportunities for people to discover, develop and share this power and talent as widely as possible. They also have a lot of fun!

People with learning disabilities have been among the groups hardest hit by the coronavirus COVID-19 crisis. The majority of the people they work with have or live with someone with an underlying health condition, and will need to shield for longer than the general population. This means more time away from friends, family and social activities - more time isolated and alone. That's where “Heart n Soul at Home” steps in.

“Heart n Soul at Home” is a vital lifeline to many of our participants - being able to access free creative sessions with an artist at “Allsorts Online” or spend time with friends at “Digital Do Your Own Thing” mean they are able to stay connected and creative during these unprecedented times. Help us ensure that they are able to continue working in this innovative way for as long as it's needed by donating or fundraising.

How are we working together?

The team at FSB Insurance Service take part in several fundraising efforts over the course of the year, including staff donations for ‘dress-down Friday’, bake sales (when we’re allowed back in the office) and sponsored walks. Staff will also be given the chance to get involved by joining in with Heart N Soul events.

“We are delighted to be FSB Insurance Service charity of the year. We look forward to working with you to champion the cause of people with learning disabilities. Every gesture means our members can continue to develop and share their skills and talents.”

– Esther Gagne, Associate Director of Heart n Soul
