IRIS scales new heights in 2012 for Macmillan Cancer Support

11 January 2012

In 2011, the IRIS employees nominated Macmillan Cancer Support as their chosen charity and together with Community Champions at all IRIS sites, pledged to raise £25,000.

Through a concerted and passionate effort by all and supported by matched funding from IRIS, the amount raised in 2011 is an amazing £66,000 and this total is still growing.

Funds were raised in a variety of ways including sport events, raffles, in-house quizzes, summer BBQ’s, Christmas days and many other initiatives both large and small.

The ultimate challenge is planned for 27th January when a team of 18 employees fly to Kilimanjaro to climb the highest freestanding mountain in the world.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this initiative.
