Children’s and adult publishing company Igloo Books has chosen Children with Cancer
UK as its charity of the year for 2013 and aims to raise £100,000 for the charity.

 

Igloo Books' 80 employees will undertake a number of challenges to support the charity,
which celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.

Staff will take part in various events, including a summer fete, a charity barn 
dance, a 100km walk, the Three Peaks challenge, and a Seven Triathlons in Seven 
Days challenge.

 

Last year Igloo Books raised £50,000 for the Prince’s Trust, its charity of the

Day last month.
