Staff at Dale & Valley Homes have been rallying to help
earthquake victims in Haiti.
The company, which manages council homes in Wear Valley, has been
raising money for the disaster in the office and is also offering
the public the chance to contribute too.
Website company Jadu has provided a website link to allow anyone to
donate online.
Employees at the Dale & Valley Homes offices in South Church
organised a dress down day, staring competition and a cake sale to
raise cash for the appeal and collected more that £250.
Organiser Hannah Ferguson said: “I saw the news reports and
wanted to do something to help.
“We often have dress down days but lots of people here like
baking or eating cakes so we thought that would make a bit more
money.
“The staring competition was just a bit of a laugh, but we
hope it makes a serious difference to families suffering after the
earthquake.”
Anyone who would like to do donate to the appeal should go to
www.daleandvalleyhomes.co.uk and follow the link on the
homepage.
