Helping across Germany

To help prevent and fight Covid-19 and to support communities right across Germany, the URW teams here have undertaken a diverse mix of solidarity actions. Our aim is always to provide the greatest support across the widest possible community.

In our German HQ in Düsseldorf our management team volunteered for a salary donation to the hospital to help procure medical supplies. We assisted with a blood donor drive, and distributed masks made by local fashion students.

In Berlin, the teams of Spandau Arcaden helped to provide food and sanitary products to people in need, and hosted concerts for local elderly residents. These were enjoyed safely from the balconies of retirement homes, and also supported local musicians whose income has been hit by the pandemic.

In Centro (Oberhausen) and Köln Arcaden (Cologne) we provided services to the elderly including grocery shopping, meal delivery and initiatives to tackle loneliness during isolation, and we co-funded initiatives including homeless support.

In Bavaria’s Riem Arcaden and Pasing Arcaden we connected people on social media. In Leipzig’s Höfe am Brühl we supported online sport for kids, and in Leine Center in Laatzen we backed organisations fighting domestic abuse.

The pandemic may have kept us apart this year, but it could never stop us from coming together.
