ISSUE 13
Welcome to the Hope Against Cancer Business Club newsletter.
Over the last few months we have had the privilege of welcoming new businesses to our Business Club. These organisations join our other fantastic and dedicated Business Club members and support us in our commitment to fund and champion vital local cancer research and clinical trials. The HOPE Business Club continues to be a key pillar in our ability to keep this commitment. Our events have been sponsored by a host of corporate supporters who have helped us achieve some fantastic successes so far this year. Our headline sponsor for the October Business Club lunch is Marsh & Co. Marsh and Company is a long-established insurance broker based in Leicester and Weston-Super-Mare. They have been arranging insurance cover for their clients since 1995 and they are proud of their trusted reputation which allows them access to many leading UK insurers. The welcome drinks are kindly sponsored by Leicester Racecourse. Thank you all so much for your support. It is because of you that we are able to fund incredible innovation, research and care right here in Leicestershire and Rutland.
