M2 raises funds for Children in Need

December 3, 2018

M2 has announced that the company has managed to raise more than £3,400 ($4,328/€3,814) for Children in Need.

M2 achieved this goal by hosting a special fundraising day on 16 November, during which the company organised a variety of activities across all M2 sites.

M2 explained, “An eclectic range of products, services and prizes was up for grabs in our Children in Need Talent Auction including portrait drawing, neck and shoulder massages, a mocktail mixologist, a track day at Oulton Park, custom hoodies, a tray of Rocky Road, and being able to hire a CEO for the day.”

Colleagues donated money to dress down for the day, and there were several life-sized Pudseys in the office, with many others sporting full face make up.

According to M2, “the wet sponge throwing was a particular highlight, and credit where it’s due, there were many ‘willing’ volunteers who dealt with the cold conditions admirably.”

There were also many entries for the Children in Need Duck Race, which was filmed at Dino Falls Adventure Golf, around the corner from the company’s head office. The eventual winner was James Pond, who crossed the finish line “slightly shaken, but not stirred”, said M2.

Last, but certainly not least, the firm’s CEO, John Taylor, offered to get drenched by cold bucket of water if colleagues could secure £25 ($31.8/€28). With such a rare offer on the table, funding soon flooded in, and 8 buckets of water were secured.

IT Director Bill Forrest, overseer of M2’s CSR programme during 2018, commented “This was a great day at M2. We take a lot of pride in supporting great causes like Children in Need, and our colleagues really threw themselves in to it!”
