Story
As a Commercial / RBT team, we're holding our Month of Giving this November to raise funds for Refugee Action.
As well as trying to raise our target of £5,000, we want to use this opportunity to raise awareness and educate our colleagues about the crisis - which is why our first event is a "Listen, Learn, Act" event in the Auditorium on 3rd Nov, 10:30 - 12:00. Please try to join in person where possible, we have external speakers from the charity, including CEO Tim Naor Hilton.
In the run up to Xmas we're also hosting a wide number of activities including Bake Sales, Volunteering opportunities, Food Bank donations, Clothes Sales, Live Bingo, etc. We'll share our exciting Calendar of events as soon as we can!
We'd also like you to make individual commitments to get involved in at least one way - of course, it's up to you how involved you get! E.g. Janet Hadley is cooking a "Pay what you feel it's worth" meal for her team; Lucy Morrison is co-ordinating food bank donations across Commercial; Ezmina Sarvani is selling her children's book "Vampire Fangs" with 100% donations to charity. This is a really great time to get into Xmas spirit too and organise a team activity with a fundraising / volunteering / donation based focus.
A massive shout-out to the team helping organise this and making sure this can happen -
