This is an average of GBP5 per staff member which is an amazing achievement and this figure excludes funds raised by Turner and Townsend staff within client offices.
Tim Wray, Chairman of Turner and Townsend, congratulated the teams for their efforts.
"This is the first time all of the UK offices have worked together for Red Nose Day and we will be sharing ideas through the local CSR representatives and Office Directors for future years".
"Once again many thanks to all who took part".
Some very creative fund raising ideas were adopted including:.
- Auctions for stays in holiday homes.
- Auctions for test drives in prestigious/quirky vehicles.
- Raffles for various prizes (such as extreme pursuits, Dinner for two at prestigious restaurants etc).
- Dressing down for the day.
- Wearing something red for the day.
- Directors matching funds raised by staff.
A special mention is given to Janice Millar and the Edinburgh and Glasgow offices who teamed together to raise the highest overall total.
The total raised by Comic Relief currently stands at GBP40,236,142 which goes towards improving conditions for people living under poverty in Africa as well as disadvantaged people and communities in the UK.
