Employees At Plexus Kelso Raise Over £6000 For Children's Ward
Employees of Plexus in Kelso have raised an incredible £6405 for the Children’s Ward at the Borders General Hospital. Following a successful years fundraising which included raffles at a summer barbeque and at the Christmas party, Fundraising Manager Clare Oliver gratefully accepted a cheque from Willie MacKinnon, Vice-President Customer Management, EMEA. Commenting on the donation Willie said; “Each year employees are asked to nominate a charity and we were delighted when the children’s ward was selected as the beneficiary of our fundraising efforts for 2011. Plexus matched pound for pound every penny that was raised by employees and we are delighted to be handing over such a significant sum of money”.

Well Done R P Adam Fundraisers!

Well done to R P Adam's fundraisers who have raised the fantastic sum of £2175.70 for The Margaret Kerr Unit by a group of walkers walking from Cauldshiels Loch to Selkirk and a team cycling 26 miles around the borders, which was particularly challenging due to the windy condition. Thankfully everyone made it back safely, arriving at Selkirk Football Club where a fun day was held for friends and family.
