The Angel Ice Bucket Challenge Continues

It’s not just our main office that’s doing their part in supporting ALS! Our Hemel Hempstead Office and Scotland depot took the challenge too.

The Ice Bucket Challenge is a charitable event that has swept the nation in an attempt to raise money for ALS, a motor neurone disease which affects muscles resulting in a lack of control over body movement.

At Angel Springs we take part in a number of charitable events. Donating our time, money and water to help in any way we can. When the Ice Bucket Challenge was bought to some of our staff’s attention they immediately decided to take part and donate what they could. All the staff who took part were enthusiastic, below is what our Hemel Hempstead Office had to say.

Lloyd Fletcher, Telephone Sales Assistant Manager: ‘’BRRRilliant cause and we really enjoyed getting 120 litres of freezing water poured on us – would I do it again? YES! Thank you for donating’’.

Nikki Mann, Telesales Executive: ‘’ It was such a fun way of raising money and awareness for a great cause! It was ice cold but it was worth it! I’m sure the lads enjoyed chucking water over us as well!’’

Laura Hemmings, Telesales Executive : “It was so cold but so worth it! I’m always happy to do my bit for charity. Thank you to all that donated and well done to all those who took part!”

Becca Wilson, Telesales Executive: ‘’Doing the ice bucket challenge was loads of fun and freezing cold! Definitely a great way to raise money for a great cause’’

Liam Murphy, Regional Sales Executive: “Doing the Ice bucket challenge was buckets of fun. Well done to all that took part and donated for such a great cause!”

Angel Springs Ice Bucket Challenge

ALS is one of five motor neuron diseases with various causes. It is characterised by muscle weakness and spasticity due to muscle atrophy. Individuals affected by the disorder may ultimately lose the ability to initiate and control all voluntary movement.

The Ice Bucket Challenge, which has gone viral across the nation over the past few days, is an activity involving throwing a bucket of freezing cold ice water over somebody as a nominated sponsor for research into ALS.

Here at Angel Springs we support both national and local charities, and are always willing to do our part and get involved in a fundraising activity. This condition especially is one close to the hearts of staff here at angel springs, so we’re doing our own.

The event organiser Christie James said

“We took part in this challenge as members of staff have had family/friends that have been affected by this disease. We felt as a company, we could raise both awareness and funds for this worthwhile charity. Our £200 target was exceeded and we hope the directors nomination will mean further donations are made.

All the staff that took part, at both Wolverhampton & Hemel put in tremendous effort and commitment to the cause. We are all still thawing out now haha”
