That\u2019s precisely what Rentokil Pest Control is doing. As we proudly mark a century of keeping homes and businesses safe from pests, our ambitious <strong>R100 Campaign is supporting 100 charities and community causes across the UK and Ireland in 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of looking inward, in this centenary year the company is looking outward, <em>turning a milestone into a mission of community support<\/em>. It\u2019s a celebration that feels less like a corporate anniversary and more like a hundred heartfelt thank-you notes scattered across the UK and Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Marking a Century with Community Support <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The R100 campaign isn\u2019t just a token nod to charity; it\u2019s one of the largest charity initiatives the company has ever undertaken. Across our branches from England to Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, colleagues were invited to nominate local causes close to their hearts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is a patchwork of goodwill: from sports clubs and children\u2019s charities to animal shelters, food banks and health related charities each chosen cause reflecting a community need or a cause that is close to one or more of our colleagues. Think of it as Rentokil\u2019s way of saying <em>\u201cthank you\u201d<\/em> to the communities that have trusted us with their pest control services for generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Spreading Christmas Joy in Southampton <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One shining example comes from the south coast of England, where the Rentokil Southampton team have thrown their support behind the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southampton.gov.uk\/support-the-southampton-toy-appeal\/\">Southampton Christmas Toy Appeal<\/a>, a long-running initiative that ensures vulnerable kids wake up on Christmas morning to something special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a midsummer branch meeting <em>(yes, Christmas in July!)<\/em>, the team presented a cheque for \u00a31,600 to the toy appeal organisers. But their generosity didn\u2019t stop at money. Later this year, vans and volunteers from the branch will be as busy putting in some extra hours working as Santa\u2019s elves, and helping transport and deliver hundreds of donated toys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"1southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil\" class=\"wp-image-22832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/southampton-toy-appeal-charity-donation-R100-Rentokil-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The impact?

It\u2019s about caring for the communities we live and work in. Our R100 campaign is a reminder of that commitment. From Southampton to Edinburgh, each local project shows that behind the uniforms, vans and pest control equipment are people with big hearts. As we celebrate 100 years of expertise and innovation, we\u2019re also celebrating the simple act of helping a neighbour. In a world that often feels divided, these 100 acts of support stand out as bright spots on the map, each marking a place where hope and help have blossomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Giving Back Really Means<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is just the beginning. Our centenary year is setting the tone for the next chapter, one where business success goes hand in hand with community wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what\u2019s next after a hundred years of pest control and community care? Only the future will tell, but one thing\u2019s certain: we\u2019re entering our next century with the same commitment to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to discover how our expert pest control services can protect your home or business, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil.co.uk\/\">visit the Rentokil Pest Control UK website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Here\u2019s to a future built on protection, innovation, and giving back.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What if a company celebrated its 100th birthday by giving you a gift?

He began his career on the front lines, getting his hands dirty as a Technician in the East Midlands, a role that gave him invaluable, firsthand experience with pest challenges. He quickly moved through the ranks, becoming a Field Biologist, Service Manager, and Interim Branch Manager, mastering the practical and managerial aspects of the business. His career took a more technical and strategic turn when he was appointed Technical Service Manager, where he was responsible for managing a team of expert Field Biologists. This period solidified his reputation as a knowledgeable leader. For over eight years as UK Product Manager, Berwyn was at the heart of Rentokil\u2019s innovation, ensuring the company\u2019s services and products were at the cutting edge of the industry. Today, as Head of SME and Marketing Manager, Berwyn serves as a key authority and a go-to source for subject matter expertise.
