Philtronics Fundraising Efforts Continue - What's next?

Keeping up the good work!

Continuing our support of Action for Children
At Philtronics, we are dedicated to supporting our chosen charity, Action for Children. That is why we have decided that we want our fundraising efforts to continue all year round. Many of our staff have expressed their interest in helping us fund raise and so we have thought of a few ways of doing so...

Swansea Epic 10k 2020
Rob Bennett, our technical director, is a keen runner and has encouraged many of our staff to take part in a 10K run to support the fundraising efforts. Most of the team have very little experience with running and so this will be a great challenge for them and an opportunity to set personal goals for improvement. Rob has put together a couch to 5k training programme for the beginners to prepare them and everyone seems very enthusiastic to  do their best and work hard as a team to complete the race. Well done to everyone taking part and good luck with your training!

Pen y Fan Walk
For those who are less keen on running, we wanted to put together another fundraiser that everyone could be included in. That's why we have decided to walk Pen Y Fan next June in support of raising money for Action for Children. This walk will involve staff of varying fitness levels and everyone can take the walk at their own pace, eventually meeting at the top to celebrate the achievement of climbing the highest peak in South Wales!

More Sweet Treats
Our bake sales were such a hit over the last few weeks that we have decided to make them a monthly event! It will be a treat for the staff for all their hard work and all proceeds will go to Action for Children. We have already had several members of staff offering to bring in their own baked goods so we look forward to seeing what delicious goods are on offer during the next one!

Getting Festive
Not long to go until that time of year comes around again and so we will be making sure to get into the holiday spirit by organizing a charity Christmas jumper day for all of our staff before we finish up for the festive period. Everyone is looking forward to dressing up and bringing the Christmas spirit in to Philtronics!


We are just getting started with our creative fundraising ideas and look forward to what's coming up in the next year. Here's to hoping that we have even great success with Byte Night 2020...
