Bingo bosses raise charity funds going back to the floor

A number of Gala Coral Group's directors raised nearly £2k for Sue Ryder Care by hosting 2 December evening bingo session at Gala Bingo's Woking club in Surrey.The session, which was open to the public, saw 10 of the company's directors go ‘back to the floor' with a couple calling two dedicated charity games of bingo and the others serving food and drinks to customers in aid of Gala Coral's group charity Sue Ryder Care.
Sue Ryder Care provides expert and compassionate care to people living with conditions including Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke and Huntington's Disease. Through a number of ongoing initiatives Gala Coral is aiming to raise £1million by 2010 to help the charity continue to provide care that liberates lives in 14 care centres and community-based services across the UK.The evening culminated in an auction which saw ferocious bidding on some great donations from companies such as SCC and BT and included a Samsung Netbook, 19" LCD Samsung plasma TV, a Wii Fit, a smoothie maker, a dolls house, BT portable digital telephones, BT Baby Monitor and a classic train set.
