South Cheshire employer The County Group ended 2018 on a high after raising more than £5,000 for charitable causes.
Fundraising took place throughout the year to support charities including the Donna Louise children’s hospice and bereavement charity Winston’s Wish.
Various activities have taken place including a Christmas jumper day and coffee morning.
Throughout December colleagues collected new toys.
Car loads were distributed to needy families via the Community & Voluntary Services (CVS) Cheshire East appeal.
Female colleagues donated 50 bras as part of the Against Breast Cancer annual appeal in the autumn and now the fundraising is back in full swing.
Individual team members are planning fundraisers of their own including sponsored walks, swims and head shaves for their chosen charities.
One is on a slimming campaign ahead of a sky dive for The Christie cancer hospital.
County Group Head of Marketing Claire Smith said: “There’s always something going on in the office to support charities but Christmas is a time when team members truly exceed our expectations.
“Just one email around the office produced a huge number of toys and on Christmas jumper day the building was full of brightly-coloured festive knitwear which raised a smile as well as funds for Donna Louise.”
The County Group, one of the UK’s top 25 independent brokers, employs more than 270 people at 27 branches across the country.
More than 60 are based at their head office in Crewe performing sales, finance, HR and marketing roles.
