Local company highlights the life-changing impact the charity has for many people in the town.
Watford based industry leaders Sigma Pharmaceuticals are proud to continue their track record of supporting the community by fundraising for local charitable causes.
At Sigma’s recent annual conference held in Sun City, South Africa, £20,000 was raised for Citizens Advice Watford, their chosen charity of the year.
The charity provides an invaluable frontline service to the community, giving free, expert and impartial advice and support to 8,000 people a year. Many are in crisis situations.
Dr Bharat Shah OBE, Founder and Managing Director at Sigma, said:
“We are delighted to be supporting Citizens Advice Watford. It has been eye opening to learn about the life-changing impact the charity has on the lives of so many people.
We have seen how their expert team work day in and day out to speak up for people who have nowhere else to turn, ensuring they receive the support and services they’re entitled to.”
Sigma will continue to partner with the charity throughout the year and are encouraging others to support the organisation, either financially, or by becoming part of their highly trained volunteer team.
Emma Burgham, Chief Officer at Citizens Advice Watford said:
“We are enormously grateful to Dr Shah and everyone at Sigma Pharmaceuticals. The generosity of their supporters will help us to keep our doors open and our phone lines manned. We believe no-one should have to face problems and crises alone.”
