We all felt the impact of the global pandemic and It is widely reported the impact it had on businesses but what is rarely mentioned is the impact on local charities like arc and especially the lifeblood of a self funded charity, fundraising.
arc relies on our excellent fundraising team to come up with ideas and organise fundraising initiatives, this became very difficult during the pandemic.
But the team didn't let that phase them and they decided that they would do something outdoors with the ability to stay socially distanced and ended up with a trip up Snowden to fundraise for arc.
In this episode two of the Snowden team Laurance Norman & Ian Hall talk through the experience further.
