PERI Staff Support Local Foodbank with Generous Donations

Employees at PERI UK’s head office in Rugby have come together to support their local community by collecting and donating food and essential supplies to the Rugby Foodbank.

In recent weeks, staff at the construction systems provider have filled collection baskets with items, including pasta, tinned goods, tea bags, and toiletries.

Earlier this week, the team handed over the donations to the food bank, which is part of a nationwide network tackling hunger and poverty across the UK.

The initiative forms part of PERI’s broader commitment to giving back in 2025, with foodbank support chosen by staff as a key priority during recent internal feedback sessions.

Tracy Armstrong, Head of Marketing at PERI UK, said: “In addition to fundraising events for specific charities, one of the most common suggestions from our employees was to support local communities by establishing foodbank collection points.

We’re proud to now have donation stations at all five of our UK offices. The work being done by Rugby Foodbank is truly inspiring, and we’re privileged to support their efforts in helping those in need.”

PERI says more community-driven efforts are planned throughout the year, including employee-led charity hikes and further local initiatives aimed at widening the company’s social impact.
