Uniting for a Worthy Cause: Supporting The Children’s Hospital Charity
The Spear & Jackson Group came together to raise vital funds for The Children’s Hospital Charity.
All businesses across the group, including those from Bowers Group, Robert Sorby, Spear & Jackson and Eclipse Magnetics, joined forces to take part in a charity event at the group’s head office in Sheffield.
Employees enjoyed the special day with a sponsored walk, raffle and ice creams, all in support of an incredible cause that helps many children and families in the local area and beyond.
Clad in hi-vis vests and taking advantage of the late-summer weather, the team embarked on a sponsored walk around the Atlas site car park. Each lap contributed to a collective group total as participants pounded the pavement in impressive numbers.
By the end of the day, Team S&J had paced an impressive 1027 laps, covering a distance of 160 miles. The occasion also featured a special Spear & Jackson raffle, offering the chance to win an array of prizes, from gardening tools and pyrography sets to shopping vouchers.
The combined efforts of the participants, supporters, and the Spear & Jackson Group raised an impressive £747.60, a sum that has been generously matched by the group itself, generating a grand total of £1495.20.
