Last week we held our annual Tech Fest event where we bring together all SBG’ers in Tech.

We held over 27 talks to celebrate successes from 2021, see how the team support our business strategy, inspire colleagues to think about how we innovate and bring people together. 🤗

To raise money for our charity partner, Support Dogs, SBG’ers joined us to meet support dogs, eat donuts and learn about how the dogs support people living with disabilities. 💙

The dogs had lots of cuddles and are ready for a nap now!

Today we raised a over £1,300!! 💰

Yesterday was National Bingo day, so we played, well you guessed it, bingo!

SBG’ers joined us to win our amazing prizes from a £250 Jet2 voucher to Airpods!

The event was in aid of our charity partners, Support Dogs, and we raised an impressive £400! 💰💰

We’ve launched a trial of our Tech Talent Transfer Market where six colleagues in Tech can swap roles for four months!

This gives colleagues the ability to build upon existing skills or learn new ones in a safe, temporary environment.
