Celebrating 10 years of fantastic fundraising success
Release Date: 14/07/2009
This year is the tenth Anniversary for five Professional Fundraising Groups (PFGs). The groups organise corporate entertainment events such as golf days, sailing events, dinners and quizzes to support Barnardo’s. Collectively they have raised an amazing £404,000 over the past 10 years!
Along with raising funds for Barnardo's, joining a PFG also offers business men and women an opportunity to put their transferable skills and talents to test, while adding an extra dimension to their working life. It also gives them an opportunity to network in their local business community.
Barnardo's are particularly grateful to the following members, all of whom have been involved with their PFGs from the start, and will receive their 10 year service pins this year.
- Mark Hyson of Andover
- Barbara Spiller of Peterborough
- Lesley Anderson, Ivan Burnard, Richard Davis, Sue Ferris, Graham Harrison, Sarah Holmes and Nigel Theyer of Plymouth
- Julian Titt of Southampton
- Colin Young of Reading
