DNA provider celebrates huge fundraiser for charity partners

Legal DNA, drug, and alcohol testing provider AlphaBiolabs has recently celebrated their hugely successful Giving Back campaign. The campaign which launched in 2021 saw them raise over £40,000 for its four charity partners: The National Association for Children of Alcoholics (Nacoa), National Youth Advocacy Service (NYAS), Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol & Drugs (SFAD), and TGP Cymru.

The company, which provides a range of legal testing services, has been donating £5 for every legal instruction received to the four charities. Each of these charities have now received over £10,000 each in donations, enabling them to provide support for vulnerable children and families across the UK.

Rachel Davenport, Director at AlphaBiolabs said: 'With many years’ experience providing legally-instructed drug and alcohol testing, we have seen first-hand the impact that substance misuse can have on vulnerable children and their families. 

'We could never have anticipated what a phenomenal difference our donations would make to these four incredible organisations, enabling them to continue their amazing work supporting vulnerable people across the country.

'The campaign is now in its second year, and we can’t wait to see how much we’re able to raise over the next 12 months.'

Hilary Henriques MBE, Chief Executive of Nacoa, commented: 'Support from AlphaBiolabs means the world to us because through their work with the legal sector, they know exactly how important it is to support children of alcoholics, especially when a parent’s addiction is active and untreated.

'Their generous support means helpline counsellors will be there to answer calls from children and concerned others from all over the UK.'

The company has committed to continuing its Giving Back campaign into 2023.
