LWYW™

LoveWhereYouWork is a community interest company established by the founders of Echospace. It was our ambition when we set up Echospace that every success that we enjoyed, automatically had far-reaching benefits to an unlimited number of people in the world.

Our pledge is to contribute a fixed percentage of the company’s revenue to LWYW™ enabling it to passionately give back.

By choosing to work with Echospace on your project, no matter how big or small, you will be indirectly making a massive contribution to improving someone out there’s life. You will be directly enabling our belief that if we, or our businesses are in a position to help those people who are less fortunate that ourselves, then we absolutely should do so. 

Our vision in workplace design is that “everyone on earth should LoveWhereTheyWork!” Often however, the gap to this reality is not the lack of an awesome office space, but rather a lack of education and opportunity.

If you are able to read, write or offer up a valuable skill to your community, you’ll have a shot at making a better life for yourself.

LWYW Investments are currently made to carefully selected partners where every penny contributed goes directly to those who need it. The focus of our funding is about doing what’s necessary for those in need to have a more fulfilled and dignified life. We achieve this through the following initiatives:

1. We look to identify opportunities in the global community to upskill, encourage, and educate children.

2. Long terms direct financial support of any community, group, or organisation approved by our trustees.

LWYW™ has been supported indirectly by a host of brilliant companies that we want to thank and recognise. Your contribution is echoing far and wide around the globe.

GOLF GOLF GOLF

We were privileged to be put at the centre of the fundraising golf day hosted by SHB real-estate. The day was set up to penalise poor golf and luckily for us at LWYW there were some pretty poor golfers on show. It was a fantastic event and raised just over £1,800 for LWYW. We’re Unbelievably grateful to have professional colleagues like the SHB team.

2020 Christmas appeal

We have launched our Christmas present appeal called “Creating Smiles.”

We have partnered with the incredible charity Family Action to help us distribute the presents to the families that need them most this Christmas.

We have asked our entire network to assist us with the collection of Christmas gifts for children aged 3-16. In the space of a month, we managed to collect 1,000 gifts. Then we launched a 2-day event which we called “The Big Wrap”, where volunteers assisted us in wrapping all gifts so that they were ready for distribution in early December 2020.
