We were thrilled to be chosen as Charity of The Year by Energize Recruitment and we are thoroughly enjoying working with them to raise vital funds for The Christie Charity. It has been great to see all employees getting involved in various fundraising activities throughout the year, showing real enthusiasm and commitment to making a difference, needing no encouragement to come up with ideas and initiatives to raise as much money as possible.
