Our Support for Great Dunmow Round Table

At Hashtag Big Smile, community is at the heart of everything we do.

Not just building it.

But being part of it.

That’s why our support for Great Dunmow Round Table means so much to us.

Great Dunmow Round Table is a volunteer-led organisation dedicated to bringing people together, raising money for local causes, and creating events that genuinely make a difference. From large-scale public events to grassroots fundraising, their impact is felt across the entire community.

And we’re proud to play a part in that.

Throughout the year, Round Table organises a calendar of standout events that have become fixtures in the local community. Events like the Soapbox Race, the Carnival, the Fireworks Display, and the Christmas Sleigh don’t just entertain—they unite thousands of people, creating moments that families remember year after year.

But behind the scenes, there’s something even more powerful happening.

These events raise significant funds for local charities, schools, clubs and individuals in need. Every ticket sold, every donation made, and every sponsor involved contributes directly to helping people within the community.

That’s where the real impact lies.

Through our ongoing involvement, we’ve supported these events both financially and through time, resources and expertise—helping bring them to life and ensuring they continue to grow year after year.

Because events like these don’t happen by accident.

They take planning.

They take commitment.

And most importantly, they take people who care.

At Hashtag Big Smile, we believe that strong communities are built through shared experiences. When people come together—whether it’s watching fireworks light up the sky, racing homemade soapboxes down the high street, or seeing Father Christmas arrive on the sleigh—it creates connection, pride and a sense of belonging.

That’s something you can’t measure easily.

But you can feel it.

And beyond the events themselves, the impact continues long after the crowds go home. Funds raised are distributed back into the community, supporting a wide range of causes—from local charities and sports teams to individuals facing difficult circumstances.

It’s grassroots support, delivered where it matters most.

That’s why our partnership with Great Dunmow Round Table aligns so closely with our mission. Just like our work internationally, it’s about empowering communities, creating opportunities and making a tangible difference in people’s lives.

But here, it’s happening right on our doorstep.

And that makes it even more special.

We’re incredibly proud to support the ongoing work of Round Table and to stand alongside the volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to making these events happen.

Because when a community comes together, incredible things can happen.

Lives can be changed.

Support can reach those who need it most.

And thousands of people can share in moments of joy, connection and celebration.

At Hashtag Big Smile, that’s what it’s all about.

Building communities.

Creating impact.

And putting smiles on faces—right here at home.
