PJH has pledges to match the £10,000 goal once this target has been achieved.
PJH’s HR business partner Katy Burns commented on the fundraising: “We chose Macmillan as the 2023/24 PJH charity of the year, as it is such an amazing organisation that makes a huge difference to the lives of millions of people affected by cancer.
“All PJH fundraising events present the opportunity to raise awareness of the Macmillan Cancer Support charity and communicate the incredibly important work it does in supporting people affected by cancer.
“PJH colleagues have really got behind so many fundraising activities so I’m sure we’ll smash our target!”
