We’re delighted to announce the official launch of a new Charity Partnership with Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global, which began on 1 May 2026.

This exciting collaboration marks the continuation of a valued relationship, built on shared values of inclusion, opportunity and community impact.

Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global are sustainable packaging solutions providers in the Andover area. They have been longstanding supporters of Enham Trust, previously contributing to key initiatives such as our Community Orchard project and generously funding a TV screen for our Choices Activities Programme (Choices).

Choices provides disabled people with opportunities to exercise, socialise and explore new interests. Activities include a range of on-site activities, such as archery, yoga, gardening club, art club, drama club, Radio Enham and many more. The programme also arranges several day trips and social gatherings throughout the year, like theatre shows and other excursions.  As part of this new partnership, Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global have chosen to continue supporting Choices through a monthly donation.

This ongoing funding will help us deliver a range of experiences led by participants’ ideas and interests. Suggestions already shared include music and cultural events, animal encounters and sporting activities. By putting choice at the centre of the programme, we can create opportunities that support wellbeing, encourage meaningful social interaction, expand everyday experiences and help reduce the isolation many disabled people face.

Beyond financial support, Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global continue to make a hands-on difference through their enthusiastic participation in Corporate Volunteering.

Throughout 2025 and 2026, their team has taken part in numerous Corporate Volunteering Days at Enham Trust, including working alongside our supported employees in our E3PL tea packing social enterprise, as well as getting involved in Choices Art Club sessions.

We’re thrilled that this hands-on involvement will continue, with the team planning to join us for regular monthly volunteering mornings.

Lily Haig, Corporate Partnerships Manager at Enham Trust says:

"Thank you so much to Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global for all of your support. We are so pleased to have you on board as one of our very valued charity partners. This partnership will have such a positive impact supporting the work we do!" 

 

Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global have also expressed an interest in taking part in an interview on Radio Enham, our online radio station (also part of Choices), which is ran by disabled participants. This will provide an opportunity for our DJs to learn about the Charity Partnership, lead the conversation and share their perspectives, creating a meaningful and engaging experience for everyone involved.

 

Jerry Steedman, MD - Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global says:

"We are incredibly pleased to be strengthening our relationship with the Enham Trust through this new charity partnership. Over the years, we have seen first-hand the positive impact the Enham Trust has on the lives of people within our local community, and we are proud to support the fantastic work of the Choices programme. At Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global, we strongly believe in creating opportunities, championing inclusion, and giving back locally. We look forward to working closely with the Enham Trust team through ongoing donations and volunteering, helping to enhance opportunities for the people they support." 

 

We are incredibly grateful for the continued support, time and energy that Test Valley Packaging and Protega Global bring to Enham. We’re really looking forward to seeing how this partnership develops and the opportunities it will create for the people we support.
