Staff leap off building for charity

Chris Lewis staff take part in 90 foot abseil for cancer sufferers

Eight employees from Chris Lewis Fire & Security braved heights of over 90 feet on Sunday 18th June to complete an abseil in aid of CLIC Sargent, the UK's leading children's cancer charity.

Robert Bruce, Anne-Marie Newman, Kate Sanders, Sally Green, Justin Rhodes, Oliver Jacobs, Matt Rider and John Jordan all successfully completed the sponsored abseil, which took place off the seven story Women's Centre at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital.

The team raised an incredible £1400 between them, which will go towards helping CLIC Sargent to care and support for children and young people with cancer and their families.

Hayley Parsons, Regional Fundraising Manager at CLIC Sargent said, "On behalf of CLIC Sargent I would like to say a HUGE thank you to those who took part and all of those that sponsored them, helping them to raise such a fantastic amount. The money raised really does make a difference to the 5 families that are told each and every day that their child has cancer. Thank you."

The team would like to thank everyone who sponsored them and those who turned out on Father's Day to offer their support.
