SGS Packaging Europe

We’re very proud of our employees across the UK and Europe, as they continually come up with brilliant ideas for supporting people in need. With Christmas only a few weeks away, our Tamworth office is holding some exciting activities that will help to create life-changing experiences for seriously ill, vulnerable and underprivileged children. Tamworth staff are invited to dust off their antlers, Santa hats and Christmas jumpers for a Wear What You Wish event on Tuesday 11 December. In exchange for a donation, everyone gets to dress up in whatever they wish, from festive ties and jolly hats, to full-on Chrimbo ensembles that we’ll definitely share on our social media channels. If previous years are anything to go by, we know for a fact that there are going to be some truly eye-catching outfits! Staff are also invited to bring in homemade cakes that will be sold throughout the day. The funds raised from this activity will be split between two very worthy causes

After last year’s immensely successful production of  A Christmas Carol , a fresh version of the classic ghost story that attracted over 20,000 visitors, Hull's home of exceptional drama is delighted to present a new collaboration with playwright Deborah McAndrew. Directed by Hull Truck Theatre’s Artistic Director, Mark Babych,  Oliver Twist  is a cheerful celebration of Christmas that combines traditional carols, folk songs and original music.
