Giving Back
Empowering communities through giving
The Farr Foundation
At UK Connect, we believe in giving back to those in need and are committed to donating at least 10% of our profits to charity every year. Our Executive Chairman & Founder, PJ Farr, launched the Farr Foundation in 2022 to provide access to STEM education for young people and inspire them to achieve their aspirations.
"STEM education for young people is at the heart of our business. We're committed to inspiring and raising aspirations for the next generation."

Buy one, Give one scheme
Through our ‘Buy one, Give one’ scheme, UK Connect donates a portion of profits generated from sales of goods and services to the Farr Foundation, which we work with the Construction sector to fund. This mutually beneficial initiative helps increase access to STEM education, inspiring and raising the aspirations of young people who may then wish to pursue a career in the Construction industry.
Putting our values into action
As a company, we actively engage in corporate social responsibility initiatives. We are proud to support the CMPP Trustees charity, which promotes community involvement among companies in Berkshire, Hampshire, and Surrey. Through our partnership with CMPP Trustees, we participate in numerous volunteering and community fundraising events throughout the year, showcasing our commitment to making a positive impact in society.
