After raising significant amounts of funds for the DPJ Foundation and Wales Air Ambulance over the past two years, Ashmole & Co accountancy firm are delighted to announce its new charity for this year is Tenovus Cancer Care.

With thirteen offices spread across west, mid and south Wales, the staff of Ashmole & Co were in favour of supporting a Welsh charity that supports those affected by cancer.

Together with its inspiring community of supporters, volunteers and fundraisers, the charity is determined to be there for everyone affected today, tomorrow and beyond.

Sharon George, Ashmole & Co Partner in the Carmarthen and Pontardulais offices, said, “Everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer, or has a family member receiving treatment themselves. We were keen to support a cancer charity based in Wales and all the funds raised would be used to support those affected by cancer in Wales. We hope our clients and friends will help us raise as much money as possible through collections and events for this extremely worthy cause.”

Dealing with cancer can be frightening and stressful but Tenovus Cancer Care are there to help. They can provide treatment, expert advice and support. Tenovus relies on generous donations, as well as income from its retail chain, to run its cancer support services. The free support line is at the heart of their services which extend into Welsh communities with their fabulous Sing-with-Us choirs and Mobile Support Units bringing treatments closer to home.  For more information visit: www.tenovuscancercare.org.uk

As part of this year of events we will work with the staff and partners in the accountancy firm to help them appreciate how the money raised is used to help those affected by cancer in Wales.”
