As a global recruitment consultancy specialising in digital, tech, marketing, sales, and creative, Salt operates across five continents and has teams across the UK including Manchester.
During the year long charity partnership, staff from Salt are planning a number of fun events including quiz nights, summer footy socials and table tennis competitions to raise funds and awareness of Francis House.
Plus, more than 20 staff from the London office will be walking from Richmond to Waterloo to help towards a fundraising target of between £1,000 and £2,000.
“We are delighted to be working with Salt and would like to thank them for choosing to support us as their charity of the year. We are increasingly reliant on fundraising to continue providing vital care to families and look forward to seeing how much they can raise.”
Joanne Burnett, fundraising officer of Francis House
