Warren Albutt
Managing Director
We believe in going above and beyond. Not just in our work, but in contributing to the greater good. Here are some of the charitable organisations we support. If you are looking for a worthy cause, then look no further than below.
The Magic of Milly was founded in memory of Milly Hill, an incredibly strong little girl who sadly passed away due to heart complications the night before her second birthday.
Moved by the support and care provided during Milly’s illness, her family, friends, and wider community continue to raise money for Birmingham Children’s Hospital in her honour.
Warren Albutt, our Managing Director, has taken part in Strictly Milly, performing the Paso Doble. We’re proud to be regular supporters of the charity and have also helped by designing and building their website to further their cause.
Freddie’s Wish was established in incredibly sad circumstances, after Steve Jolliffe’s grandson Freddie was tragically killed in a car accident in 2014. The charity does wonderful work in supporting bereaved parents who have also lost their children. It seeks increased education for the public regarding paediatric first aid, so that parents might learn the skills to potentially save their child’s life.
S2F has been supporters of Freddie’s Wish since its creation. Notably, we manage the planning and design work for the Freddie’s Wish Charity ball, a biennial fundraiser that contributes massively to the charity’s great work. A big thank you to Blackthorns Chartered Accountants for their continued support.
The Colebridge Trust Ltd. is a not-for-profit Community and Enterprise Development organisation. Their mission is to build the capacity of Solihull’s borough-wide communities, addressing social, economic and environmental deprivation and improving the life chances of its people.
They provide support, development, and representation to the local Voluntary sector, as well as front line services in health and well-being and in pre-employment support.
Warren Albutt, our Managing Director, holds a position as a non-executive, giving Colebridge advice and direction on their sales and marketing.
Hope Food North Birmingham supports individuals and families facing financial hardship across North Birmingham and Sutton Coldfield. Created in response to the challenges left by the 2020–2021 lockdowns, the charity provides a welcoming food bank service that uses surplus food from supermarkets and public donations to offer free bags of essential groceries, fresh produce and toiletries.
S2F Marketing is proud to support Hope Food North Birmingham through ongoing food collections and awareness efforts. By working alongside Hope Food, S2F aims to contribute to the charity’s mission of bringing hope and providing support to those experiencing hardship across the local community.
BREWS Education is dedicated to supporting families in Birmingham through free, expert-led courses that help parents and carers understand ADHD and neurodivergence. Their aim is to create a city where neurodiversity is recognised, supported and celebrated, helping young people embrace their unique strengths and learn in ways that suit their neurotype.
S2F Marketing worked closely with BREWS to create their website, providing a clear, accessible platform for families to explore and register for courses. The website reflects BREWS’ mission to educate and empower families, with easy-to-navigate sections, course details and resources, helping them reach and support more families across Birmingham effectively.

We asked our staff and clients “why S2F?”. The results came back with a familiar response time and time again: “They take the time to understand us as their clients”.
We know marketing is considered to be the ‘fluffy stuff’, which of course we get, however, for us it’s about getting to understand the ins and outs. What are your challenges? And just as importantly, what are your customers’ pains?
Understand this and the marketing strategy builds itself. We work collaboratively with you and each other to ensure the best results. No jargon; just plain and simple communication.
What we’ve achieved over the last two days has been nothing short of phenomenal. S2F has been a pleasure to work in partnership with! This has left us all thinking about what comes next in the Nielsen. Thanks again for all of the hard work and support your giving us!
Graham Robertson Head of Sales, Nielsen
I just wanted to say that I think you have done a great job on the website. The photography etc is great giving the right look, feel and overall impression of the company; way beyond anything PMP has had online before. It will be interesting to see what comes from the marketing initiatives I know you are planning to drive prospects to the site.

S2F impressed me from day 1, as we had some immediate needs – a global partners event within a few days of my 1st discussion with Warren. He mobilised a team to support what turned out to be a very successful event, and we haven’t looked back since. Many thanks to Warren and his excellent team, they feel like an integral part of our company.
