Staff at AST Hampsons fund raise for Age UK

Zoe Bell and Liz Anker of AST Hampsons

Staff at AST Hampsons on Yorkshire Street, Rochdale have helped to raise money for Age UK by getting involved with their annual bobble day fundraising event.

Bobble day is held every year by Age UK as a way of making winter a better season for older people.

Zoe Bell, a solicitor at AST Hampsons, said: “I work with Age UK in Rochdale and every year they do this day to help raise awareness of the effects of winter on older people because there are usually more deaths in winter.”

Staff at the solicitors baked cakes to raise money as well as selling bobbles for people to wear on their clothes.

Zoe added: “We have invited clients and local businesses to come in and have a cake and a coffee to raise the money.”
