Kind-hearted employees at Watts Gregory LLP, the Cardiff-based chartered accountants and business advisers, have raised £2,089 for Bobath, the children’s therapy centre.
Employees at the practice held a series of fundraisers including cake sales, sweepstakes, raffles and dress down days bringing in £1,069.
The firm’s participation in The Dragon Boat Race in Cardiff Bay brought in £624 while staff donations to Bobath through payroll in the form of Give As You Earn (GAYE) raised £396.
Since 2008 the 40 partners and employees at Watts Gregory have raised more than £8,000 for charities.
This year staff have chosen Cancer Research Wales as their nominated charity for 2012.
Julia Mortimer, an Associate with Watts Gregory, said: “Every member of staff pitches in to help the fundraising drive for our good cause and Cancer Research Wales was chosen following a vote among staff. Most people know someone who has been diagnosed with cancer and, we believe, it is important to support the fantastic research work being carried out.”
Lindsay Hogg (pictured), Managing Partner at Watts Gregory, which is based at the Cardiff Gate Business Park, said: “Staff pull out all the stops to help our chosen charity. In these difficult financial times when money is tight, we believe it is important to continue supporting good causes.
“Our social and charity fundraising committee are always looking for new ways to raise funds and all staff play their part fully,” added Lindsay Hogg.
