As Good Friday means that we lost the opportunity to have a dress down Friday, we thought we would hold an Easter Raffle in the office with all proceeds being split evenly between this months charities (Cancer Research, Save the Children and the British Heart Foundation).

We had a bounty of goodies to give away that had been kindly donated from individuals in the office which included, Hotel Chocolate and Thornton’s Easter Eggs, DVD’s, t-shirts, boxes of chocolates and some hi tech gadgets!

Tickets were sold all week for £1 each and at 2pm on Thursday afternoon Ignacio Hernandez pulled 15 lucky winners from the hat! I was delighted to win a Thornton’s egg which didn’t last out the long weekend!

The raffle raised £93, which is a fantastic amount so thank you to everyone that donated a prize and who bought a ticket! We are consistently raising a significant sum for charity every single week and I’m proud of the effort and the spirit that everyone is displaying with each new fundraising idea we introduce. Nice that we have the luxury of a 4 day week this week and one of those days is dress down – yeah!!!

Keep on giving!!
