The ARAG bake off in aid of Pancreatic Cancer


Wednesday 18th June, one of the busiest days in the ARAG HQ calendar.  Sales had their quarterly meetings and the office swarmed with colleagues, including our remote staff. After work the whole company gathered for a social/sports evening on the picturesque Clifton Downs in Bristol. This presented the perfect opportunity to focus on our charity of the year Pancreatic Cancer www.pancreaticcancer.org.uk

Our bake off included a huge assortment of cakes and delicacies including a South Indian sweet Mysore Pak’, a Polish speciality Wisniowy Sad’, cherry chocolate cake, lime key cheese cake and peanut butter crunches. Our MD Tony claims to have tried them all.  Judith from Compliance went ‘off piste’ with her homemade beef pasties which went down a treat.
The bake off raised £321 and created a real buzz in the office, bringing together a mix of people from different departments, all committed to our Corporate Responsibility programme.  

In May we were overwhelmed by enthusiasm from staff, clients and suppliers who sponsored our business team to run the Bristol 10k. We raised £2,760. Thank you, to everyone who supported this event and for the many generous donations.
