Kilfrost
ALV safely replaces fluids like mono propylene glycol in existing systems , instantly improving pumping and heat transfer efficiency for sustained energy savings .
But Kilfrost ’ s work does not stop at its business operations and expansion . The company is actively engaged with several charities and organizations , one of them being the NHS funded Spirit in Mind program . Kilfrost ’ s commitment to make a positive impact on communities shines through its support of Spirit in Mind ’ s Canine Befriender initiative . Designed to offer inpatients and hospital staff the transformative experience of spending time with therapy animals , this program has proven benefits in reducing stress , providing comfort , and promoting social interaction . The therapy animals visit the mental health inpatient wards on a weekly basis , accompanied by their dedicated owners who generously volunteer their time . These visits offer crucial support to individuals facing mental health conditions . The overwhelming popularity of the dogs among everyone on the wards has resulted in a growing demand for visits . Unfortunately , meeting this demand requires additional dogs ,
which incurs additional costs for recruitment and assessment . However , Kilfrost ’ s generous donation of £ 1300 has played a pivotal role in the expansion of the program , funding additional dogs and more frequent visits to mental health inpatient wards . Kilfrost ’ s commitment to uplifting the spirits of the most vulnerable in society is evident , as the company actively contributes to the well-being and healing of individuals with mental health conditions . Thus , the impact of Kilfrost ’ s involvement extends beyond monetary support , as its contribution brings lasting positive changes to the lives of those involved . The Southwest Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust and EyUp ! charity have also expressed deep gratitude for Kilfrost ’ s generosity , as it enables the program to reach more individuals and enhance the therapeutic benefits of spending time with their wonderful dogs .
With industry-first achievements and ongoing support of community initiatives , Kilfrost remains a driving force in innovation and a champion of societal good . ■
