Jessops Staff Raise £900 for Clic

Staff at Jessops Head Office in Leicester held a Summer Funday earlier this month to raise funds for their chosen charity of the year, CLIC - Cancer and Leukaemia in Childhood, and raised £900!

Staff took part in a range of fun activities including drench the director, hook-a-duck, guess the weight of the CLIC bear cake, car-wash auction, raffles and tombolas.

Head Office departments also paid to have an entrant in the first ‘Miss Jessops’ competition. Brendan Marris, Merchandising Manager, saw off competition from seven other competitors to win the title.

The funday was one of a number of events planned over the coming months as part of Jessops ‘Click for CLIC’ campaign. Jessops stores nationwide will be joining in the fun by holding a Summer Funday on Saturday 14th August and all stores now carry collection tins and sell CLIC merchandise.

Jessops aims to raise over £50,000 for the charity by the end of the year.
