Access Accounting raises funds for Sue Ryder Care
Press Release - Monday, February 06, 2006
Colchester-based Access Accounting has raised more than £2,100 for Sue Ryder Care's The Chantry in Ipswich.
The company's Social Committee organised a variety of events throughout 2005 including a last hour appeal, where staff members could donate their last working hour of the year to fundraising efforts.
Committee member, Julie Hammick, commented, “All the staff here at Access play an important part in choosing which charity we should raise money for throughout the year. The Chantry, which is a specialist centre dedicated to caring for people with neurological conditions, such as strokes, Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson's disease, was one of two very good causes that we decided to support.”
The committee also donated the same amount to the Multiple Sclerosis Colchester and District branch.
