Spread a Smile was delighted to be invited by Clarksons and the Clarksons Foundation as a beneficiary charity for annual Charity Giving Day, which this year raised a whopping £250,000.
The day kicked off with ‘A Day at the Races’ where 260 participants from 10 of Clarksons’ global offices joined forces in a spirited cycling competition. The Spread a Smile team were there to cheer them on, and it was great to see so much energy and enthusiasm from the teams who all came together, pushing themselves to the limits to make a difference for the recipient charities. Congratulations go to the Dry Cargo team in London who were crowned Champions.
The day was capped off by a wonderful gala dinner and auction, with Spread a Smile’s co-founder Josephine Segal there to support this brilliant initiative and share the different they are helping to make to the families we support.
Spread a Smile is proud of our long standing relationship with the Clarkson Foundation, and it was a privilege to be able to share this special day with the Foundation, Clarksons and their wider team.
Imogen Slazenger, Spread a Smile’s Head of Fundraising said, “Thank you so much to Clarksons, the Clarksons Foundation and everyone involved for their ongoing support and inviting us to join in all the fun of Charity Giving Day. It’s because of days like this that we are able to continue our work spreading smiles to seriously ill children in hospital.”
