In addition to the fundraising all of the team are business ambassadors for the charity, which means they help to raise Sussex Cancer Fund’s profile by talking about the charity at business events.
Lara Squires, director, said: “Being such a small team, we knew it would be tough to raise a lot of funds, but the team all rose to their individual challenges. It just shows what you can do, and even small firms can make a big difference.”
