Thatcher + Hallam Solicitors are celebrating a £3,800 donation to cancer counselling charity We Hear You (WHY).

The money has been raised during eighteen months of fundraising for the charity, including in-branch fundraising, donating resources and sponsoring fundraising events.

Fundraising and Communications Manager Gemma Wilkes said: "This partnership is a perfect example of the many ways a local business can support a charity.

“T+H have donated a percentage of profits from services via a Will Month, helped us break a Guinness world record, joined us on local media for awareness raising, donated wine and chocolate to maximise the profit for our fundraising events, sponsored a table at the 2022 WHY Winter Wonderland and much more! Special thanks to James, who ran the Bath Half Marathon last October and a skydive, also somehow finding time to qualify as a solicitor last year!

“Our charity partnerships are about so much more than money...but the fantastic total of £3,800 will provide more than 70 sessions with one of WHY's specialist counsellors, providing vital emotional support to children and adults affected or bereaved by cancer and life-threatening conditions. Thank you T+H for being such brilliant partners.

“If your business would like to partner with WHY, in any or all of the ways that T+H have, email [email protected] to arrange a meeting with the team - we'd love to hear from you.”

Lauren Martin, Associate at Thatcher + Hallam, said: “It has been extremely rewarding fundraising for We Hear you as our Charity of the Year. Although it was not the easiest of starts for fundraising whilst dealing with COVID lockdowns and rules against meeting in large groups, we more than made up for that over the last year.

“We are extremely proud of our staff for throwing themselves into volunteering and fundraising and that the funds raised will make such a difference to the lives that WHY touch.

“It has been great fun and a great honour to have had WHY as our Charity of the Year.”
