Here we go with this week's update...

Niamh's Next Step/Cynthis Spencer Hospice: Northamptonshire estate and letting agent Jackson Grundy has raised a terrific £24,000 for two charities in the county. It raised £12,201 for the Cynthia Spencer Hospice during 2014, and the same amount for Wellingborough charity Niamh's Next Step. After choosing Cynthia Spencer Hospice as one of two charities of the year in 2014 to celebrate 20 years in business, the agency staff took part in a skydive, car boot sales, wolf run, tough mudder, and an abseil. They also ran an Easter raffle, a World Cup sweepstake and fantasy football league and organised events, including an Eighties night and coffee morning, all to raise funds.

The Good Shepherd School and Hollygirt schools, Nottingham: Agency Walton and Allen has been the good samaritan to The Good Shepherd school in Arnold and Hollygirt School in Nottingham, supplying pupils with hi-viz vests. The firm sponsored the schools in conjunction with the company's new Safe as Houses campaign. Phil Williams, head of residential sales, says: "We were shocked to hear that the school didn't have any hi-viz vests to wear on school trips or on the walk to and from school, and so wanted to help out. We put our logo on the back of the vests along with a pair of hands making a roof shape of a house and a slogan saying 'Walton & Allen Safe As Houses'."
