On Friday 7th October Bibby Leasing in Yorkshire held its annual fundraising event. Like last year the site was raising money for the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA) and joined the national “Big Brew Up” campaign.
The team collected raffle and quiz prizes, took over the local town hall and held a big coffee morning. Staff and friends baked cakes and ran stalls. The event was well attended with Lieutenant Colonel Laurence Smith MBE from the Royal Engineers and a Sgt from Third Battalion Parachute Regiment coming along to offer their support. The site also held a silent auction for a brand new golf bag, which had been kindly donated to us throughout BFS. The day was a great success, raising over £2,400 to be matched!
There is a team of ten running for the North West Air Ambulance in the London Marathon this year. If you have a place and want to join Team Bibby then get in touch.
Fundraising doesn’t just have to be about sponsored events and cake sales! There are many challenge events you can take part in that allow you to complete a personal challenge whilst raising funds for your favourite charity.
