~ 5th Annual Frankham Fundraising Lunch in aid of the Chandran Foundation ~

A very big thank you to Steve Frankham MBE, Pat Saville, and our Frankham family for yet another inspiring annual fundraising lunch. We couldn’t do what we do, without you.

This year, the morning of the event held an especially poignant significance, as we said farewell to our former chairman of 20 years, Lord Herman Ouseley.

While Herman’s presence was deeply missed, his spirit and commitment to make a difference echoed within all of us.

“It is only through collective effort that we can hope to make a real difference in the lives of those who are often overlooked.”
Lord Herman George Ouseley, 24th March 1945 - 2nd October 2024.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Lord Herman Ouseley (24 March 1945 - 2 October 2024) at the age of 79.

As Chairman of the Chandran Foundation from its birth in 1997, Lord Ouseley played a crucial role in shaping our mission, and his legacy continues to embody everything we stand for. He was a tireless champion of equality and social justice, dedicating his life to combating institutional racism and uplifting disadvantaged communities.

Our thoughts are with his friends, family, and the many people whose lives he touched. We will never forget you 💙

~ BGC Charity Day: 20 Years of Giving Back ~

For the last 20 years, BGC’s Charity Day has raised millions annually for charities worldwide. We’re honoured to be part of this very special day, celebrating two decades of making a difference.

A big thank you to James Guy, MBE, for representing the Chandran Foundation, and to Davina McCall for shining a spotlight on grassroots charities.

As Davina rightly said, it’s all about purpose - having a purpose in what we do drives change and uplifts those in need.

Giving back is more important than ever, and with the support of companies like BGC, and a clear sense of purpose, charities like the Chandran Foundation can continue to uplift young people and communities in need.

Stars from music, sport, film, and TV will hit the BGC Group trading floor to raise millions for charity. Special thanks to Olympian James Guy, 2024 Paris gold medalist, for representing us.
