Network and communications service provider telent has now raised over £515,000 
for the NSPCC over the past 10 years.

The half a million pound mark was reached following fundraising events by telent
staff, customers and suppliers, including busking trips round Europe and London 
Marathon runs, plus many local events like cake sales and raffles.

Many telent employees have also chosen to give tax-efficiently from their salary
by payroll giving.
