New Contract
Connecting young people to the support they need.
At Dixons Carphone, we’ve always been about connecting people, helping them realise what's possible in their life. That's why we're delighted to support our chosen charity partner, The Mix.
The Mix provides free, confidential help designed to support the physical and mental wellbeing of young people under 25 across the UK, whatever their issue, through the technology of their choice. They connect young people to the help they need, 365 days a year, and offer support in overcoming any problem.
Dixons Carphone’s support of The Mix is special because it was created by a merger between YouthNet and Carphone Warehouse’s long-term charity partner, Get Connected. Our 16-year backing of Get Connected is one of the longest and most enduring corporate charity partnerships in existence - and it’s our support that has made this historic merger possible.
Our business will support The Mix by providing office and helpline accommodation as well as organising fundraising events such as The Dixons Carphone Race to the Stones.
Having a single charity partner lets us focus our charitable activities, so we can be a real force for good and have a much bigger impact. In fact, our support means that 2 million 16-25-year-olds will get the help they need by 2018.
