We have a policy of senior management engagement in not-for-profit organisations as well as making financial contributions to local charities and those connected to our people.
Each year, our team have a chance to nominate a charity that is close to their heart. We then put them to a vote and the one who wins with the majority becomes our charity of the year for which we undertake team events to raise awareness and funds. This year we have chosen Protected Paws to partner with.
Protected Paws Animal Rescue is a registered charity based in London and surrounding areas. They provide shelter for the unwanted, medical care for the sick, end of life care for the elderly and safety for every animal in their care. Sadly animals are abandoned every day and the charity work with amazing foster carers to provide the animals the second chance they deserve. They constantly look for suitable forever homes for them and interview all adoption applications to ensure that right match between adopter and the animals. Protected Paws have a zero euthanasia policy unless suffering medically and they are staffed purely by volunteers and the founding trustees.
To keep up with our fundraising during the year, please keep following us via our website and Linkedin.
We also regularly sponsor and support many local charities including:

Heather Bechman, STEM4
‘WSM is a corporate supporter of STEM4 and has been actively working with us over the past year. Their involvement has been hugely beneficial in a number of different ways. Apart from the loan of time from Kayley Hackshaw who has been extremely helpful in helping us on the finance side, social networking and introducing us to many business links, WSM have been instrumental in fund-raising for us in a major way by nominating us as their charity of the year. We are extremely appreciative of their investment in us which can only continue to help us deliver our services to the teenage population we work with together with their families and schools to enable improved mental health.’
Chrissie, Merton Arts Trail
‘When we set up the Merton Arts Trail in 2010, WSM was one of the first companies that we went to for sponsorship because of their high profile support of local arts organisations. Immediately we were given a pledge of funding, and Paul Windsor met with us and gave us important pointers as to how we might raise more sponsorship, and he put us in contact with others who could help us get our organisation off the ground. Their support has been steadfast ever since – in a variety of important areas, from advice about managing our organisation, to helping us find venues for events – even as far as giving us space to store our catalogues in the run-up to this year’s event – WSM has been there to help out, and offer support. Even when our energy levels were flagging last year, Paul made us understand the importance of our work, and encouraged us to continue it for the good of the community, both artistic and those who are touched by the arts in intangible ways.’
