COLLEAGUES and suppliers of Travis Perkins Managed Services (TPMS) took to the court to take part in a netball charity fundraiser for Bowel Cancer UK.
More than 150 colleagues, suppliers and sponsors took part in the charity tournament hosted at Benham Sports Arena in Northampton and raised almost £5,000 for the UK’s leading bowel cancer charity.
Various teams across the Travis Perkins Group supported the fundraiser organised by TPMS, a leading supplier of products and materials to the social housing sector.
This is the fourth time TPMS has hosted the fundraiser, with more than 10 suppliers across the construction sector entering teams or making donations that added to the final amount raised.
Sarah Glennon from Travis Perkins Managed Services said: “We had a brilliant day hosting our annual charity netball event, and we are thrilled to have raised £4,700 for Bowel Cancer UK.
“The netball was incredibly competitive as it always is, and the winners were well deserving of their crown. Everyone played with great sportsmanship while keeping the focus on raising money for a great cause.
“Bowel cancer is a horrendous illness that impacts so many people across the UK, and the work the charity does to support those impacted by it is nothing short of brilliant.
“For TPMS, it is great to play our part in that by raising awareness and funds for those affected, and it also allows colleagues to network across the construction sector.”
Teams that participated in the tournament included Procurement for Housing as well as suppliers Altro Limited and Geberit alongside a host of internal teams across the Travis Perkins Group.
“We must say a huge thank you to the support we received from our suppliers, as without their support events like this just would not be possible and to our colleagues who took time out of their busy schedules to take part.”
The overall winner of the competition was the Travis Perkins Category team.
