On the 1st of May 2013, Tubz Brands joined with the national charity Starlight Children’s Foundation, in an exclusive commercial partnership. Starlight Children’s Foundation helps seriously and terminally ill children across the UK, and after many customer and operator recommendations in their favour, we decided to support their worthy cause.

Because our main selling lines are confectionary, Tubz Brands and Starlight both felt we would be a great fit. Mr. Tubz and the staff from Tubz headquarters have attended Starlight events throughout 2013, doing their bit to brighten the lives of these very deserving children.

At the end of July 2013, Starlight held their annual children’s summer party which encompasses much of what Starlight does – bringing wishes to life, an escape for children in hospital, a Starlight party and a little bit of pantomime. The party was held at Belmont Children’s Farm in Mill Hill where the children enjoyed everything from animal petting, alpaca walking and pony grooming to tractor rides and treasure hunts. The party brought some magic into the lives of hundreds of children who are bravely fighting serious illnesses, giving them and their families a magical experience to remember.

Tubz Brands were asked if they would like to volunteer to help out on the day so some of the staff at head office along with Mr. Tubz gladly went up to make the day as memorable as possible for the children. Tubz Brands donated nearly 2,000 Tubz sweets and Mr. Tubz and our staff helped to hand them out, along with Starlight staff, volunteers and other corporate contributors.
