The £2,500 fund has been created to mark It’s Clean’s 25th anniversary

Henshaws is the latest charity to benefit from one of ten £250 donations being made to local good causes during 2024 by Harrogate contract cleaning firm It’s Clean Ltd.


The £2,500 fund has been created to mark It’s Clean’s 25th anniversary and Henshaws is the third charity to benefit, donations having already been made to Carers’ Resource and Time Together.


Henshaws supports people living with sight loss and a range of other disabilities to go beyond expectations. It is well known in Harrogate and Knaresborough for its Specialist College and Arts and Crafts Centre.


David Whan of It’s Clean said: “Henshaws has an impressive range of services that are designed to help people with disabilities to live life to the full and we are delighted to be supporting their work.”


Gemma Young, fundraising development manager at Henshaws, said: “We are so grateful to David and the It’s Clean team for choosing to support us and contribute to the work we do to make a positive impact in the local community.”


Henshaws is currently inviting people to support their Henshaws Hundreds Challenge this June. This inclusive event invites participants of all abilities to raise £100 in whatever way they feel able, be it through culinary skills, musical performances, walking challenges, or artistic endeavours. Funds raised from the Henshaws Hundreds challenge will empower individuals with sight loss and other disabilities, helping them build skills, gain confidence, and embrace a brighter future.

It's Clean Ltd Joins Forces with Orian Solutions Group

by david • 29 October 2025
It’s Clean Ltd, has joined the Carlisle-based Orian Solutions Group, marking a major step in its continued growth and diversification. It’s Clean has been operating across North and West Yorkshire for 26 years and has clients in a wide range of sectors including offices, schools, GPs, care homes, manufacturing, hospitality and events. Based in Carlisle, Orian Solutions is jointly owned by Westmorland & Furness Council and Cumberland Council and provides contract cleaning and food services, predominantly to clients in the public sector. Orian has recently secured major multi-year contracts in the police and fire sectors, while It’s Clean continues to grow through new partnerships in the charity and insurance sectors. David Whan, Managing Director of It’s Clean Ltd, said the move would bring together Orian’s strong governance, service quality, and commitment to social value and It’s Clean’s commercial experience, enhancing the Group’s ability to deliver flexible, high-quality facilities services across both public and private sectors across the North of England. He said: “Orian’s wealth of experience in the public sector and standards of governance mean It’s Clean can now compete in new sectors. “When I met their new CEO, John Donnison, it didn’t take long to see the fantastic synergies between our businesses, and we reached an agreement to join the Orian Group within days.” Mr Whan said the move to join forces would bring additional benefits to long-standing employees of It’s Clean who would now benefit from Orian’s Pluxee discount card giving discounts across a variety of retailers, services and everyday spending. The deal was completed on September 1, with Orian Group acquiring the shares in It’s Clean Ltd, bringing together two trusted northern service providers with shared values of quality, reliability and community focus. John Donnison, CEO of Orian Solutions, commented: “It’s Clean Ltd has a terrific heritage and brand in the Yorkshire commercial cleaning market and brings a new dynamic to the Orian Group. We’re only six weeks in and already seeing huge mutual benefits. “By combining our strengths, we are well-positioned to become the commercial cleaning and contract catering provider of choice for businesses and organisations across the North of England, serving a broad customer base, supporting schools, councils, emergency services, charities and commercial clients across the North of England.”  The It’s Clean office, branding and customer contact will remain the same, and David and his team will continue to lead the business, ensuring continuity as they build forward within the Orian Group.
