Fox & Sons helped raise the cash for CLIC Sargent – the UK’s leading charity for children and young people with cancer and their families.

Fox & Sons – which has offices in North End, Fareham, Gosport and Waterlooville – has been supporting CLIC Sargent since 2001 as part of the national estate agency network Sequence.

The scheme has raised more money this year than ever before.

Over the course of the partnership the total is almost £400,000.

Sequence’s fundraising efforts in 2016 have included everything from personal challenges like the London Marathon, sky dives and the Prudential Ride London, to fun staff initiatives including bake sales and dress down days, a MINI bike raffle, a football tournament and the company’s annual partners’ ball.

Many branches also got involved in the much-loved Christmas jumper day, which this year raised £1,500.

‘The work they do in the fight for young lives against cancer is so important and we’re extremely proud to be able to contribute to and be a part of that.

‘We’re donating such an impressive amount to CLIC Sargent this year and look forward to an even bigger year of fundraising in 2017.’

Catherine Cadman, fundraising manager at CLIC Sargent, said: ‘Everyone at Sequence has surpassed themselves this year with this impressive sum of funds raised. It is so amazing to see the partnership go from strength to strength.
