We raised £2,409 for charity over December

After a month of charitable activities, our nine offices raised £2,409 for our local office charities and the national charity: Save the Children UK.

During December our CSR (corporate social responsibility) Team organised a Raise and Give (RAG) programme. RAG – historically associated with university students raising money for charity – was successfully adopted and used as a catalyst to extend the firm’s charitable activities.

Across our nine offices we held five different fundraising activities, with a festive twist…

The festivities included a Winter Hamper Raffle, the National Christmas Jumper Day – supporting Save the Children UK, a Christmas Quiz, a reverse advent calendar and Fizzy Friday. Fizzy Friday being the decisive event in which a few of the offices got together on the last working day before Christmas to enjoy some mince pies and a glass of Bucks Fizz.

A selection of images from our RAG programme can be seen below.

James Peach, Audit and Assurance Partner and Head of the Corporate Social Responsibility committee, said: “All in all, the introduction of the inaugural RAG initiative across the festive period was a great success and we’re excited to replicate this initiative in the coming years.

“We are thrilled to be able to ‘do our bit’ for the community and our local CSR representatives continue to drive the support of our local charities in as many ways as possible. We are committed to being good neighbours and supporting charities, not for profit organisations and schools through the insights and expertise we can offer.”
