Our Philosophy
At St Jude’s Laundry, we believe business should do more than deliver great service—it should serve a greater purpose.
Founded on compassion and committed to quality, our philosophy is simple: to provide outstanding commercial laundry while creating real opportunities for people facing barriers to work. Every sheet we press, every uniform we return, is part of a bigger story—one of dignity, purpose, and community.
People First
We are proud to operate as a social enterprise, employing and training individuals who may have faced long-term unemployment, health challenges, or other obstacles. At St Jude’s, we don’t just offer jobs—we offer a chance to build confidence, learn skills, and take steps toward a better future.
Our team is at the heart of everything we do. They bring care, pride, and professionalism to every task—and it shows in our results.
Excellence as Standard
We believe that being a community-focused business doesn’t mean compromising on quality. Quite the opposite.
We invest in state-of-the-art equipment, rigorous processes, and continuous training to ensure every client receives the highest standard of service. Whether we’re laundering for a five-star hotel or a local care home, our attention to detail remains the same.
Responsibility in Every Load
Caring for our community also means caring for the environment. We use energy-efficient systems, eco-friendly detergents, and sustainable practices throughout our operations—because we believe a clean business should help keep the planet clean too.
Partnership with Purpose
We build long-term relationships with clients who share our values—organisations that want reliability, quality, and social impact all in one service. When you work with St Jude’s, you’re not just outsourcing your laundry; you’re investing in people, supporting inclusion, and strengthening the fabric of our city.
