Richard’s Jumpers Raises over £1300 For Charity
A member of the RGP’s civilian support team has raised over £1300 for this year’s GBC Open Day.
A statement from the RGP follows below:
Richard Harman, who works in the Information Management and Vetting Unit at New Mole House, is no stranger to fund-raising as he has been involved in the Open Day for each of the past four years.
‘This year’s idea was to be sponsored to turn up for work in a different Christmas jumper on each of the 13 days from 1 December till the Open Day on 14 Dec.
‘I set myself a target of £200,’ said Richard.
‘Then, when the donations started to come in, I raised my target to £500 – but I never expected to raise £1300! People have been extremely generous.’
And why wasn’t Richard at his place of work on Thursday?
Because he’d taken a day’s leave so that he could help GBC to raise even more money on the big day itself!
