Reeds Rains estate agency staff have been officially classed as Superheroes following their success in raising more than £28,000 in support of charity initiative, Cash for Kids.
The news follows the efforts of Reeds Rains staff in taking part in a number of fundraising events which culminated in their participation in a dedicated Cash for Kids’ Superhero Day – which the agency sponsored.
Staff joined other fundraisers in dressing up for the day as Superheroes whilst taking part in activities such as sponsored bikeathons, rowathons, football matches as well as holding cake sales, car boot sales and much more. As a result of Reeds Rains’ efforts the charity, which runs across 21 Cash for Kids sites - each supported by local radio stations - managed to secure more than £270,000 in funds with monies raised locally staying within the local community.
Oliver Blake, Managing Director of Reeds Rains commented:
“I was absolutely delighted that Reeds Rains teams ‘pulled out all the stops’ to make Superhero Day such a success and have managed to contribute such a great amount to the fundraising total.
Our staff understand the importance of supporting the local community and how, by coming together as a team, we can generate some great results. I’d like to personally thank them for their support of this event and congratulate all who have helped to make this years’ Cash for Kids initiative so successful.”
Sally Aitchison MBE – Managing Director of Cash for Kids added:“From on air support to in branch activity, the Reeds Rains teams have thrown themselves into Superhero Day. Individual branches have delivered a contribution of more than £28,000 to the campaign whilst the partnership has helped raise awareness and engagement across 8 of our radio stations to support the delivery of over £270,000 in fundraising. This will make a huge difference to thousands of local children who need an extra helping hand. Reeds Rains really are Superhero Agents!”
