Due to some personal allegiances to some specific charities, we have decided that a percentage of the profits that Able Bridge Recruitment makes, will be donated to JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) https://www.jdrf.org.uk and Health in Mind https://www.health-in-mind.org.uk We feel that the work that the organizations do is life changing and much needed.
