During the pandemic, weekly huddles provided the opportunity to keep employees engaged with what was happening within the business, as well as to stay in touch with each other. Teams were also able to share their thoughts and stories through the company's 'Thankful Thursday' and 'Feel-good Friday' campaigns.
During lockdown, Card Factory introduced a 'Curiosity Corner' where staff would discuss a different topic. It was linked to the company's learning management system, which hosted e-learning material related to the topic. The scheme was available to all staff, and was optional, but proved to be popular.
The Card Factory Foundation, the company's charity body, was overwhelmed by staff fund-raising initiatives during the pandemic. They led to a £31,500 donation to Macmillan Cancer, £20,000 to the NSPCC to fund Childline counsellors to work from home and £10,000 to the late Captain Sir Tom Moore, in support of NHS Charities Together.
