Staff at Alphameric Solutions Ltd show the England Cricketers how it’s done with a fun afternoon of fundraising for the staff's chosen charity, Children’s Hospice technology charity Lifelites.
Staff at Shalford based Alphameric plc have shown the England Cricket Team how it’s done – when it comes to fundraising that is. The team at the Shalford based company scored a blinder when they set about their charity game earlier this month to raise funds for their chosen charity Lifelites. Kelly Middlemiss of Alphameric said, “We’ve never done anything like this before and didn’t know what to expect. But the sun shone on us and we had a wonderful fun afternoon and managed to raise £415 for the work of this important charity does at children’s hospices all over the country. It’s got our fundraising efforts off to a great start.” “It is wonderful to have the staff at Alphameric on board making a run for Lifelites,” commented Lifelites Chief Executive Simone Enefer-Doy. She added, “Their support is going to help us to continue our work in particular in Surrey where we provide our full education and recreation technology services on an on-going basis to help the children at Christopher’s in Guildford, Rainbow House in Great Bookham and The Children’s Trust in Tadworth to have fun.” Now the staff are planning their next fundraising venture. This time they may join in with the charity’s Overdress for Work day on the first Friday of December, kicking off the festive season with a great fun day of colleagues paying a forfeit to wear their best bib and tucker to the office for a day.
E N D S Notes to editor: About Lifelites in Surrey We provide our full package of technology and related services for the children of The Children’s Trust in Tadworth, Rainbow House in Great Bookham and Christopher’s Children’s Hospice in Guildford. Today technology is part of the way with live, work and play; for children even more so. Lifelites is the only charity in the country supplying a fully maintained package of home education and recreation technology for all the 5,000 children and their families who use any one the 40 children’s hospices in the country on an on-going basis. Our package includes computers with controlled internet, special equipment for children with disabilities to use the computers for themselves, printers, games consoles, TVs and cameras. With our help, the children can surf the web and keep in contact with their schools, families and friends, play games with their brothers and sisters or simply relax in front of their favourite programmes with their parents and feel normal for a while. Our stills and movie cameras help the families make a lasting record of the special time they spend together with their child at the hospice.
