Searcys has been taking part in a variety of activities to mark its 175th anniversary, from charity runs to raising over £10,000 for #CookforUkraine at Searcys’ restaurants and bars earlier in the year.
The pinnacle of the fundraising calendar for the company so far has been the ‘Tour De Searcys’, a three-day gruelling 175-mile charity bike ride, led by managing director Paul Jackson.
He said: “Delivering our £175,000 charity pledge to celebrate the company’s 175th birthday has been a tremendous team effort. Our vision has been to build a platform for each and every one of our people to support causes close to their hearts.
“Examples include wonderful Jenny Sunwar from the Barbican who ran 175km in the month of February, our people team who took part in Moonwalk in support of Breast Cancer research and colleagues across the company have run, cycled, baked and organised raffles. Whether large or small, every effort matters and every contribution is greatly appreciated.”
