Our Remarkable Colleagues across Travel recently donned their pyjamas to raise over £1,000 for Go Beyond. What a fantastic achievement!
Colleagues across our Travel branches grabbed their teddy bears, put on their snuggliest dressing gowns and stepped into work in their pyjamas for a massive team fundraiser.
Travel’s Put On Your PJs Day raised £1,380 (and counting) for Go Beyond – a charity they have a longstanding partnership with and one that is close to the heart of our Travel colleagues.
Go Beyond provides getaways for children and young people facing challenging situations at home, giving them the chance to have adventures, explore the great outdoors and make new friends.
The best news is that the team together raised enough to cover the cost of a full week’s stay for a child in need.
This is a fantastic example of Doing good together, with members and customers dropping in to make donations, and shows how our remarkable colleagues can make a difference in our communities. Well done!
Mariette Stevenson, Marketing Executive for Your Co-op Travel says, “A massive shoutout to every individual who played a part, whether by wearing PJs, dropping by our branches, donating, or simply sharing smiles. Every penny contributed has translated into a positive change, allowing Go Beyond to offer children and young people facing challenges a chance to escape, breathe, and create lasting memories on week-long breaks in the countryside.”
