Legionella and Fire Safe Service started the week with a “How We Roll” Challenge. 

Staff challenged themselves to cycle a few miles each day using an in-office bike, inspired by Paddy McGuinness and his CIN challenge. 

Tuesday was  All About the Spots  or Yellow as staff dressed in their brightest spotty or yellow attire, going around local businesses to collect donations and spread awareness.

Wednesday saw a Cake Decorating Contest as creativity took centre stage as the team decorated cakes, with prizes for the most imaginative designs.

Thursday was Pudsey Pong, a fun take on ping-pong to keep spirits high and donations rolling in.

And Friday was bucket shaking as the team went  out in the community, to raise further funds. 

Legionella's Kym Morris said: "It has been a brilliant week at LFS and Children in Need is a wonderful cause. 

"We want to help Children in Need create a brighter future for vulnerable children and young people who need it most. 

"We are so fortunate to have an incredible team here who genuinely want to help and go the extra mile."
