Hot tub manufacturer backs cancer support charity

Hot tub manufacturer RotoSpa has announced a new charity partnership with fellow Royal Sutton Coldfield of Commerce member the Cancer Support Centre.

The collaboration between the cancer support charity and Boldmere-based RotoSpa will include an array of fundraising and awareness initiatives.

The Cancer Support Centre, which provides life-changing services to those affected by cancer, is also the chosen charity of the Royal Sutton Coldfield Chamber.

Rotospa, known for its energy-efficient and durable hot tubs, will become a key partner in the charity’s fundraising events throughout the year.

The company has agreed to provide significant backing for CSC’s calendar of events, including the annual quiz night and upcoming golf day.

In addition, RotoSpa founder Karl Rowntree and his team will be taking on an eye-catching challenge in the Royal Sutton Fun Run – pushing a hot tub around the 8.5-mile course to raise awareness and vital funds for the charity.

Karl said: “Cancer is something that touches all of us in some way, whether personally or through loved ones.

“The work that The Cancer Support Centre does for individuals and families affected by cancer is invaluable, and we are incredibly proud to be able to support such an important local charity.

“As a business rooted in the Sutton Coldfield community, we see this as our opportunity to give back, raise awareness, and help make a real difference.

“The Royal Sutton Fun Run challenge is a fun but meaningful way to highlight the cause – and what better way to do it than with a hot tub in tow!”

The Cancer Support Centre in Sutton Coldfield provides professional support services to individuals living with and beyond cancer, along with their families and carers.

Offering counselling, complementary therapies, and wellbeing workshops, the centre is a crucial lifeline to many people in the area.

Brian Davies, fundraising consultant at CSC, said: “We are thrilled to have Rotospa on board as a dedicated charity partner.

“Their commitment to supporting our events and taking on the Fun Run challenge in such an imaginative way is truly inspiring.

“I encourage other local businesses to follow Karl and his team’s example – whether by sponsoring an event, offering corporate donations, or even joining them in pushing the hot tub around the undulating course!

“Together, we can make a huge impact for those who rely on The Cancer Support Centre.”
