Danbro employees to cycle round the world to raise 8000 for Operation Orphan

Danbro the specialist accountancy firm for contract, freelance and temporary workers are jumping on their bikes to raise £8000 for Operation Orphan.

Employees of the firm aim to virtually cycle a massive 8000 miles over 12 months for the charity which focuses on creating brighter futures for orphans and vulnerable children around the world.

The miles will be clocked up on in-house exercise bikes and also on the trips Danbro employees make in their own time. All the money raised will help to support, educate and take care of orphans below the age of 18.

Emma Hollindale, Quality and Development Manager at Danbro, said: ‘This is a great opportunity for our team to make a difference to the lives of several children. We are already heavily involved in a number of other charities and it is good to be able to give something back'.

Danbro was awarded ‘Business of the Year' & ‘Employer of the Year' at this year's Be Inspired Business Awards and also featured in the Sunday Times Fast track 100 as one of the fastest growing privately owned companies in the UK.
