The businesses themselves and the staff regularly support charities and fundraisers in our local communities. Whether it be staff time, resources, or donations we will always try our best to help where we can.
Our featured charity is Hands Up For Downs.

Morgans Hotel regularly donates vouchers for luxury overnight stays to various fundraising raffles and auctions. We have donated to hundreds of worthy causes and charities over recent years and are proud of the thousands of pounds raised in the process.
Each year our staff and the businesses come together to buy Christmas presents for the MR X appeal. We are proud of the donations handed over each year.

2021 was the first year the businesses came together to support, fundraise and promote a Swansea based charity under the Swansea.com brand. Whilst we will continue to support the many charity and fundraising requests, our main focus will be our featured charity.
Our featured charity is Hands Up For Downs. Hands Up For Downs was established in 2011/12 and have since been working hard to be there for future families giving support and ensuring children with Down's Syndrome get access to the services they need.
"Hands Up For Down's aims to promote social inclusion for our children and their families by raising awareness and changing perceptions. We aim to challenge the outdated perceptions of Down's Syndrome by informing and educating."
"We assist in the care and development of our children by providing support, advice and training about Down's Syndrome to health and educational specialists to ensure their continued development."
"We want our children to have access to the services they require and deserve, to access mainstream education if they wish and move into employment, to lead fulfilling lives, to gain independence and develop lasting friendships and relationships. We want them to become valued members of our community and wider society.""
