The agency, which supported No Limits as their charity of the year in 2021, took on an ‘Active January Challenge’ by walking running, swimming and cycling a collective 300km throughout January.
Mitchell and Stones also designed and sponsored No Limits’ digital adverts for their Christmas campaign to help the charity reach young people who were suffering during the colder winter months.
Lizi Fewtrell, fundraising officer at No Limits, said the charity had seen a real decline in corporate and community fundraising over the last two years because of the pandemic.
“It’s with thanks to the support of companies like Mitchell and Stones that we’re able to continue to support children and young people in their time of need, helping them to grow in confidence and build brighter futures,” she said.
