Spalding’s Encore raises £18,000 for charity

Spalding-based recruitment agency, Encore Personnel has raised an impressive £18,000 for three children’s charities.

Every year, staff from the New Road business nominate charities to support which are often influenced by causes close to their hearts.

This year’s beneficiaries were The Sick Children’s Trust, Cardiac Risk in the Young and CLIC Sargent (Cancer Charity for Children and Young People).

An exciting year of fundraising has seen Encore climb, cycle and bake their way to raise the much-needed funds.

During the summer, employees raised £9,000 by taking on the highest mountain in the UK, Ben Nevis while others rallied together to hold regular dress down days, cake sales and sporting sweepstakes across each of the offices.

Chris Hockey, director at Encore Personnel, said: “From fancy dress to reaching new heights, our staff have been dedicated and determined over the past 12 months to raise a substantial sum of money for these three vital charities.

“We saw more staff than ever before get involved and we also had a selected charity champion in each one of our nine offices in charge of organising exciting regional events. It is brilliant to see that all their hard work paid off.”
