UK: A team of employees from Bitzer UK recently took the plunge to raise over £2,000 in a charity skydive.

Colleagues Tina Ruff, Sarah Cain, Emma Brandom, Glen Bryan and Tracy Francies have so far raised an impressive £2,446 for the Willen Hospice in Milton Keynes, following the skydive last month.

The dive was instigated by Tina Ruff, whose father passed away with pancreatic cancer in August 2013. “Doing the sponsored skydive and raising money for Willen Hospice in memory of my Dad was my way of saying thank you to them,” said Tina.

Donations to the cause can still be made by visiting www.justgiving.com/teams/BITZER up until June 26.
