Through the launch of The Audley Foundation, an independent charity, Audley will now have a platform that will enable it collectively to organise and link it to causes that are near and dear to the communities it serves including village owners, community customers and team members.
What is The Audley Foundation?
The Audley Foundation seeks to raise funds to support charitable organisations that enhance the lives of older people. This is something the Audley Group and its Mayfield and Audley villages have always done but we are now creating a dedicated platform to raise more monies for charity. Audley Group Ltd has pledged to cover all administrative costs in the formative years, until such time that The Foundation is established, so all funds raised will go directly to named charities. We will also be encouraging business partners to support the Foundation.
Fundraising
This year The Foundation will focus on employee and corporate fundraising. This will include events and payroll and till-giving initiatives for its team members and customers respectively.

Tour D’Audley:
John Nettleton, Chair and Trustee of The Audley Foundation, has been cycling across the country taking in Audley villages en route. John's journey started on 14th May and lasted one week.
The Blenheim 7k Run:
Over 100 team members signed up and took part on Sunday 15th May 2022, in what was another fantastic spirited event. Some people ran, some walked, some brought their families along to join in, and some four-legged friends even tagged along on the day.
And there's more coming up at Audley villages around the country, and Mayfield soon too as the village nears completion.
From 2023, each Mayfield and Audley retirement village will be able to decide which local charities to support from monies raised locally. The Foundation will provide support for these village events which could be financial and/or employee time.
The Audley Foundation is registered and regulated by the Charity Commission. Registered charity number 1187871
