 * Twyford-based Daisy’s Dream and
 * Reading Samaritans

 

It has previously supported charities including:

 

 * Younger People with Dementia
 * Camp Mohawk
 * Thames Valley Air Ambulance
 * Berkshire Vision.

 

Fundraising activities have included raffles and silent auctions, a bake sale, a
sponsored ‘rowathon’, monthly dress-down days, quarterly staff events (which each
department takes it in turn to organise) and an annual quiz night, which this year
raised a record breaking £4,600.

 

Richard Tredgett, a trustee at Reading Samaritans, praised the charity’s relationship
with the firm: “As well as fundraising, members of Blandy & Blandy’s team have become
involved in our charity and provided invaluable support with our operation.

 

“We have also attended several of their charity briefing events, which have given
invaluable updates on changing legislation in the charity sector, and had the benefit
of legal advice. They genuinely support the charity they choose and their people
give their time with a passion.”

 

In addition to their two charity partners for 2018, Blandy & Blandy LLP will continue
to support other causes, including the Reading Pancake Race, Reading Legal Walk,
Reading Santa Run, school events and charity golf days.
