Spreading Joy: Sharp Consultancy’s Annual Easter Egg Drive

​At Sharp Consultancy, our annual Easter Egg Drive has once again brought together our team, clients, and community to support local charities and spread a little cheer. As a finance and accountancy recruitment business rooted in Yorkshire, we’re proud to use our network to give something back—and this year has been no exception.​Led by Tom Davage, Senior Consultant in our South Yorkshire office, our team has been out and about collecting Easter egg donations from our fantastic clients. The generosity shown has been incredible, especially given the ongoing challenges many continue to face. Thanks to everyone who contributed, we were able to deliver meaningful support to three wonderful charities in our region: Paces, a specialist centre supporting children with cerebral palsy and motor disorders; St Luke’s Hospice, which offers compassionate end-of-life care; and The Family Works, a trauma informed, family support project working alongside underprivileged families.​Tom, who organised this year’s initiative, shared: “When you hear the stories from the people working within these charities, it really opens your eyes to the challenges others face. If we can bring a smile to someone’s face—even through something as simple as an Easter egg—it makes it all worthwhile. Every bit of support counts.” Seeing familiar donators from past years and welcoming new ones has been truly heart-warming. It’s a testament to the kind and community-minded nature of the businesses we work with. ​To all our clients who donated, thank you. Your kindness and continued support make this initiative possible and help us make a real difference. If you’d like to get involved next year or learn more about the causes we support, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can keep making a positive impact—one small gesture at a time.​

​TOP TIPS TO COMBAT THE WINTER BLUES

Back to Blogs

As the clocks go back this weekend, it signals the start of the winter months and for many, it can see motivation and productivity levels dip as our mornings and evenings begin to get increasingly darker.

Take a look at our top three suggestions for keeping on top of those winter blues.

Focus on your to-do list

Many people get a real sense of satisfaction as they tick off items on their to-do list. Putting in place realistic targets for each day and week will help you stay on track and feel motivated when you feel your energy levels starting to take a plunge. By making sure what you set out to do is achievable and manageable you will set your self up in the right way for the day ahead.

Get some fresh air

Heading out for a brisk walk can be much less appealing when the weather starts to turn colder but getting fresh air and taking a break is even more important during the winter months as our energy levels dip when we spend less time outside. Wrap up warm and blow away the cobwebs and you’ll feel ready for the rest of the day.

Take a look at your work life balance

Dealing with stressful periods at work can be all the more difficult during the winter months, without the promise of weekends in the sun or a summer holiday to look forward to. Make sure you take some time out for yourself and look for ways that you can relax that brings benefits to your physical and mental well-being.
