Thousands of pounds have been raised for local and national charities thanks to the efforts of Rykneld staff, tenants and residents.
Thanks to everyone who has supported our staff with their charity fund-raising over the past few months.
Every year our staff choose a charity to support and this year staff voted to fundraise for Sheffield Children's Hospital.
Thanks to all their hard work and effort in 2017 Rykneld Homes staff raised a grand total of £1497 for good causes.
We also raised more than £1,500 in the 2015 Race for Life in Chesterfield.
Our Estate Caretaker, Annie Ford had her head shaved at one of our Summer Events in support of Cancer Research UK and managed to raise over £1,000.
We regularly host 'Dress Down Fridays' on certain Fridays throughout the year where staff are able to donate a minimum of £1 to charity in order to dress casually on the day. Our Staff Think Tank also organise fundraising events all through the year.
