Charity

Charity supportOur aim is support national and local charities through fundraising activities that help to create fun and involvement for our employees. We also support our employee’s individual endeavors to raise monies for the charities of their choice outside of working hours.

Annually we nominate a charity to raise money for. Over the last years, through the coordination of our Sports and Social Club, we have supported Hope House, Cystic Fibrosis, the Salvation Army, the County Air Ambulance, the Children’s Heart Foundation, Breast & Prostate Cancer and Cancer Research and Children In Need.

In 2006 we raised £2,000 for Cancer Research UK. This is the charity we continue to support in 2007.

We have taken part in national initiatives like jeans for genes day and for the last 3 years we have acted as a call centre, taking BBC Children in Need pledges from people who live in the Midlands. We hope to do that again this year.
