Courier Systems don't usually send Christmas cards to our clients. We believe in giving the money which we would have spent on Christmas cards, to a worthwhile charity. Over the last few years we have chosen to support Brighton Housing Trust (BHT), and in particular First Base. First Base is a day centre devoted to helping those who are sleeping rough, or who are insecurely housed.
Listen to Bal describe what it's like to be on the streets, and how First Base has helped.

First Base provided all kinds of support to help people - dentistry, podiatry, nurses, mental health support, accommodation services. In addition, they help with re-training, and have a social Enterprise catering company called Dine. Dine not only raises money for First Base, but it is staffed by some those who have been helped through First Base.
We believe that BHT operate in a very business like manner, ensuring that money is spent efficiently and productively. We are impressed not merely by what BHT does, but how they do it - and that's why you won't be getting a Christmas card this year.
Have a really good Christmas, and a happy New Year.
