Staff raised nearly £4,000 for Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day.  The Chief Executive and senior managers washed the vans of our workforce on Friday March 13, while wearing red accessories, including a red wig!  Peter Roach, Ian Tipton and Paul Heywood rolled up their sleeves and pitched in, all in the aid of charity. 

The workforce turned out in full force to witness the spectacle and residents and contractors also supported the event to raised £3,782.

We are a regular supporter of Red Nose Day and last year  staff raised over £1200.

Other events organised throughout the day included reception staff, sponsored to wear their pyjamas for the day and a game to guess what was in the speech bubble on a range of photos.
