Burcher Jennings climbs new heights in baton challenge

Fri 02 Feb 2018

Staff from legal pricing and costs consultancy, Burcher Jennings, raised nearly £25,000 while taking part in Headway’s Baton Challenge.

Its staff put their fear of heights to the back of their minds to take part in the O2 Arena climb, held ‘An Audience with...’ dinner event with football chairman Peter Risdale, and one colleague, Claire Borradaile, even took on the grueling London Marathon.

Victoria Morrison-Hughes, a Costs Consultant at the firm, said: “We were inspired to become baton holders after hearing inspirational speaker Kate Allatt talk about her stroke at a Headway event.

“It bought home to us how brain injury can happen to anyone at anytime. I could easily see how Headway and its campaigns could have a relevant impact on the majority of us.

“It has been a wonderful year raising money for Headway and I’m so proud of everyone who has taken part in the fundraising events to raise the money which will undoubtedly help so many people coming to terms with brain injury.”

Jo Plant, Director of Fundraising at Headway, said: “Everyone at Headway would like to thank all the staff at Burcher Jennings who took part to make its Baton Challenge year such a massive success.

“The funds raised will go a long way to help Headway support families across the UK whose lives have been affected by brain injury.”
