Core Telecom

Many thanks for the support

At our organisation, we know that effective communication is vital to supporting mental

health. For charities like ours, strong communication tools make it possible to reach people

quickly and easily—whether they are in busy cities or remote areas. Phone calls provide a

way for individuals to share how they’re feeling, without fear of stigma.

Telecommunication also plays a crucial role in helping our teams collaborate, develop skills,

and spread awareness about mental health issues. In short, it allows us to extend our

support to more people, exactly when and where they need it most.

However, we know how expensive these tools can be—and for a charity, every penny

counts. That’s why we were so grateful when Core Telecom reached out to us. They

provided us with a free 03 number and removed all our incoming call charges which

significantly reduced our communication costs and allowed us to focus more on what

matters: supporting those who need us.

We’d like to thank Mahmood Mazhar, CEO of Core Telecom, for launching a charity division

dedicated to helping organisations like ours.

If you are a charity looking to reduce your telecommunication costs, we highly recommend

getting in touch: charities@coretelecom.co.uk or 0330 111 0033.

SoundLINCS.

We have been working with SoundLINCS for the production of a new charity chart single

This year we decided that we would try and get the message out by producing a new single. We teamed up with SoundLINCS and University of Lincoln and approached Cat Winter to help. The song was written and sung by Cat with the help of local musicians and the choir from Lincoln university, It was produced by the students of the university in there own studios. The outcome was a collaboration of different people and has ended up an amazing song.
