We were delighted to have 6 teams enter the tournament. The teams included our clients, suppliers, window cleaners, office team as well as a team from Eltham Hill School.
RCS Head Office team and George Wakeling’s team played each other in the final, and although RCS were at 1st position in the first round, George Wakeling’s team stole the trophy after a 2-1 win!

Volunteers Week
Being heavily involved with various fundraising activities, we would like to introduce volunteering into our company, and make it a big part of what we do. Activity projects have been planned for our charities CACT, Mission care, Demelza and our partnered school Eltham Hill School.
As we are partnered with Eltham Hill School through the BITC business class scheme, we approached the vice principle to find out whether the students would like to take part. We have since received an overwhelming amount of interest from our staff members, as well as students from EHS to participate.
We hope our first venture into volunteering week is a success.

Careers Event At Eltham Hill School
The event was organised for Year 9 pupils, to raise awareness of the different careers available to them, in order to develop their career aspiration. In small groups of 4, the students had the opportunity to ask questions and interact with the business women volunteers.
Pauline explained ‘As most of the pupils did not know what they wanted to do after school, myself and the other volunteers had the opportunity to talk to the pupils about the type of skills needed to succeed in the workplace. I hope we encouraged them to continue to work hard at school and have an understanding of the skills and tools needed for them succeed.’
We will continue to work closely with EHS and provide all the relevant help and support we can offer.
