Over the past 12 months, each of our depots have been allocated 2 charity boxes, with the proceeds raised being donated to charities chosen by our depots.
The Black Box campaign consisted of each depot having a standard trench box and a mini trench box painted black and branded with the chosen charities logo. The boxes were selected from our hire fleet and distributed to different jobs at random, in hopes that they would reach various sites and promote the charities.
Over the past 12 months, our depots have raised a staggering £34,789.54!
A massive thank you to all our customers, without whom we would not be able to make our charitable donations. With your help we have made a difference to these charities and the lives of those they support.
“The initiative was launched 2 years ago, and has been well received in the industry by our customers, suppliers and our own employees. We derived the initial concept by looking at one of our core values – commitment. The business has for many years been committed to making charitable donations throughout the UK across a variety of sectors, however this initiative allowed us to donate on a National basis but our own employees were given the opportunity to select local/regionalised charities that are pertinent to them.”
MGF Operations Manager, Chris Whitworth










“The black box initiative has been a fantastic extension of the company’s charitable efforts. We encourage our regional teams to choose their own charities, which enables MGF to support more local foundations across the country.”
MGF Managing Director, Simon Littlewood
