Thanks to the efforts of those working at Suffolk Coastal’s
Melton Hill offices, a bumper cheque of £1,500 is set to be made
out Cancer Research UK after the latest annual charity fundraising
day.
A whole range of money-earning activities were put on by Suffolk
Coastal’s Sports and Social Club earlier this month and it has
helped bring their total donations to charity to a staggering
£28,000 since 1994.
“This was another tremendous team effort from the many people
who gave up their own time to put in place all the fund-raising
activities that succeeded in gaining £1,500 of donations. Given
that we have less than 300 people working at our Melton Hill
offices, this was some achievement and once again shows what a
great bunch of people we have serving our communities,” said Cllr
Robert Whiting, Cabinet Member for Resources.
Among the activities were raffles, a Wii bowling competition,
target golf, an auction of promises, a dance mat contest, and a
very well-received cake stall. Planning is now already underway to
make next year’s charity day an even bigger
success.
