National commercial insurance broker Warren Hill is celebrating its 40th anniversary
by choosing Macmillan Cancer Relief as charity of the year. The company’s directors
and staff will mark the anniversary by committing themselves to raising money for
the charity throughout 2003.

Warren Hill is joining Macmillan’s major national events such as the Macmillan 
Mile campaign in May and the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning in September. Staff 
will also be taking part in a variety of events such as sponsored abseiling, race
nights, fun runs, dress-up days (where staff pay to wear evening dress at the office
for the day) and much more. Macmillan will also be holding fundraising events on
Valentine’s Day, Bonfire Night, Halloween, and other traditional celebrations.

As well as organising and holding a series of fundraising events the company will
also involve its customers and insurance company partners. For example it will send
birthday cards to them all, including a request for a donation.
