Hugh James has been raising money for
older people’s charity Age Cymru with a sponsored walk with a
difference around Penarth Marina.
Staff from Hugh James, took part in a Nordic walking fundraiser
along the Cardiff Bay Barrage on 10 June to raise money for Age
Cymru.
Says Rob Taylor, Chief Executive of Age Cymru:
“We are very grateful to the staff
from Hugh James for giving up their time to raise funds for Age
Cymru with the Nordic walk. Hugh James has helped raise vital funds
for a number of our charity’s projects through various fundraising
events since we started working together six months ago. The Nordic
walk along the Cardiff Bay Barrage and around Penarth Marina is
just another example of the generosity that Hugh James and its
staff have shown Age Cymru recently.”
Hugh James has been a keen
supporter of Age Cymru since 2009. During this time Age Cymru has
been one of our four chosen charities for the year. Hugh
James staff have collected hundreds of pounds for the charity
with events such as quizzes, dress-down days and the Nordic
walk.
Lisa Morgan, Senior Associate of Hugh James says:
"Hugh James has been working with
Age Cymru for the last few months to help raise money for this
worthy cause. Older people’s issues will become increasingly
prominent in our society in years to come, due to our ageing
population and Age Cymru represents older people’s views and
concerns. We are happy to help Age Cymru ensure that Wales is
adapting to the needs of its future population.”
