Leigh Christou Team take on Coventry Cathedral for the Myton Hospice
A number of our team are taking their fundraising to new heights, (literally!) this time with an Abseil down Coventry Cathedral on Saturday 28th September 2024, all in support of the Myton Hospice.
They hope this adrenaline rush activity will raise as much money as possible for the Charity, which offers compassionate end of life care and provides support to thousands of people and their families. Every penny raised helps keep their services free of charge to their patients and their loved ones, so please help us and show your support to our staff who are facing their fears and taking on this brave challenge. If you would like to make a donation, please visit www.justgiving.com/page/leighchristou - Thank you!

Eight Accounting Santa’s head for Leamington on the 10th December
Staff at Leigh Christou are joining in with the 5k Santa Dash through Leamington Spa on Sunday 10th December in aid of Myton Hospice. It might be a competitive dash, or even a dawdle for some, but either way we hope to raise funds in aid of this amazing cause.
Chris Christou, Senior Director, said that as a company we know about the great work that is undertaken by Myton Hospice and we have proudly raised funds for them during our fortieth anniversary year. This would help round off the year if we could raise as much as possible with our jumping Santa’s. To help show your support please kindly make your donation on our Just Giving page. Thank you so much!
