After smashing their fundraising target in 2012, the staff at Buckles Solicitors set themselves an even bigger target to reach in 2013, with the aim to raise over £2,000 for their Charity of the Year, the NSPCC.
After spending the year growing a mini garden, building the tallest tower, baking the best cake and throwing the perfect plane, Buckles once again accomplished their target raising a total of £2,394.98.
Every month staff took part in a different child or green themed activity paying £2 to enter, the most popular activity being The Buckles Great Green Bake-off in May where staff were challenged to bake a green themed cake. Cakes entered were then sold to staff at the Peterborough office.
In addition to the monthly challenges, staff also took part in a table football tournament, a silent jewellery auction and a sponsored leg wax, which saw four male members of stall, including two partners, have their legs waxed for charity. The leg wax itself raised just under £200 to go towards the total fund.
With the start of a new year, Buckles has set themselves a new target raising money for Anna's Hope, a leading children's brain tumour charity in the East of England.
