🎉 What an incredible Family Day we had at IG India! Over 300 employees and their loved ones filled our Bangalore office with laughter, creativity, and joy. From intricate Origami creations to colourful soap making workshops, our families explored their artistic sides together. The Gaming Stations buzzed with friendly competition while Tambola brought everyone together for some classic fun. Watching kids and adults alike express themselves through Painting and showcase their skills in Cake Decoration was truly heart-warming. These moments remind us that behind every great team and employee are the families who support them. At IG Group, we believe in celebrating not just our professional achievements but also the personal connections that make our workplace truly special. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this day memorable! A huge shoutout to the Social Committee and volunteers for making this a success! Here's to building stronger bonds both in and out of the office! 🏢❤️ Here's a small glimpse into our day; follow our Instagram page @iggroup.india for more content!

This September our global office teams are taking part in Teach First’s #runtheriver, which IG is proud to sponsor. Last week colleagues from our London office braved the rain and the tube strikes to be the largest corporate group taking part in the London race. The landmarks, the atmosphere and the camaraderie made the run a bit easier, and the event a brilliant team experience. Thanks to everyone at IG and Freetrade who showed up for this fantastic cause. #connection #community #charity
