Marsden Building Society Renews Sponsorship of CFL Annual Dinner
The Community Foundation for Lancashire is delighted to welcome back Marsden Building Society as a sponsor of the Community Foundation for Lancashire Annual Dinner on 29 September 2026.
Our Annual Dinner is the Foundation’s flagship event, bringing together more than 100 business leaders, philanthropists and community champions at the stunning Browsholme Hall. The evening celebrates the collective impact of our donors, Lancashire Investors in Community members and the many community groups working to strengthen lives and communities across Lancashire.
Marsden Building Society has a long-standing commitment to supporting local communities, dating back to its founding in 1860. Through its partnership with the Community Foundation for Lancashire, that commitment has continued to grow. Marsden has established its own charitable foundation, contributed to the Red Rose Fund and played a leading role in the creation of Lancashire Investors in Community, helping to inspire businesses across the county to invest in local causes.
“We’re delighted to sponsor the Annual Dinner once again. It is a wonderful evening that showcases the impact of the Community Foundation for Lancashire and the achievements of the Lancashire Investors in Community initiative. I look forward to meeting businesses, both familiar faces and new connections, and encouraging those who can to further support communities across the region.”
Rob Pheasey, Chief Executive of Marsden Building Society
