Can you believe that 3 months have passed already and we needed to have another Big Charity Vote to decide which charities will benefit from the now varied activities we undertake each month!!

The list of 22 charities was made up from suggestions within the office and everyone had a chance to vote for 9 charities, giving a score of 9 for their most favourite down to 1 for their least favourite. There were some clear favourites in the office so I’m expecting a lot of activity over the coming months. The chosen 9 charities with the score they accumulated are:

July
Hwange Conservation Society - 119
British Red Cross - 74
RNID - 63

August
Parkinsons Disease Society - 80
NSPCC - 72
Survival - 57

September
Help The Aged - 79
WWF - 69
Coaching For Hope - 51

As you can see I have already set out into months so we can see who we will be collecting for until the end of September. This covers a diverse range of people and animals that we will be helping over the coming months as well as a mixture of large and small charities and they are all worthy causes.

For all you tennis fans out there, the oldest and finest of all the Grand Slam tournaments starts at Wimbledon on Monday 22nd June and to coincide in the office we will be doing a few little activities. The first of which will be to host our own, Antz Wii Tennis Challenge Cup. I am collecting names now for the tournament and will be updating this space with progress next week. Entrants into the competition will be playing for this coveted trophy which will be engraved with their name:
