Every 20 minutes, someone in the UK is diagnosed with blood cancer. It's the third biggest cancer killer in the UK, but it can be hard to diagnose because the symptoms often overlap with those of other common illnesses. We're working with The Christie Charity and blood cancer charity, DKMS UK, to educate our colleagues on the signs and symptoms of blood cancer and encourage them to join the blood stem cell donor register. Armed with 8 THG volunteers, DKMS carried out over 100 swab tests throughout the day and spoke to hundreds of colleagues about joining the register. Dr Jon Bell, a Consultant at The Christie, also joined us to talk about the incredible work that is happening at The Christie every day to improve outcomes for patients navigating a cancer diagnosis. 👉 Click to register as a potential donor: https://lnkd.in/dnjCjGq #WeAreTHG #THGintheCommunity

We are delighted to announce our interim results for the half-year today. The Group continued to deliver against its strategic priorities, seeing strong performances in both the Beauty and Ingenuity businesses.     THG Beauty saw a record H1 adjusted EBITDA performance of £32.6m, as business model changes come to fruition.     The major rebrand of Myprotein is also nearing completion, delivering positive reactions from global consumers, major offline retailers and licensing partners. Myprotein has also entered an exciting new long-term partnership with Müller for co-branded dairy products that have launched across major retailers.    Further contract wins within THG Ingenuity are underpinning a steady acceleration in revenue growth, resulting in a record adjusted EBITDA performance.     We have also announced today that, following the completion of the FCA listing regime review, we are taking the appropriate steps to transfer to the ESCC category, which we expect will leave the Group eligible for inclusion in the FTSE UK Index Series.     Following extensive engagement with our valued shareholder base over the past 12 months, we are progressing options to demerge THG Ingenuity. This will leave us with two highly profitable and cash generative businesses – THG Beauty and THG Nutrition.    #WeAreTHG
