Thorntons Pledge Support as Caring for Kids Aims for New Record

1 October 2005

Radio Tay listeners’ charity Caring for Kids is celebrating the news that solicitors Thorntons are to extend their sponsorship of the charity campaign for a further year.

The major financial contribution from the Tayside legal firm for 2005/2006 will allow Caring for Kids and Radio Tay listeners to continue helping thousands of vulnerable and needy children across the region.

Confirmation of Thorntons’ continued support for what has become one of Scotland’s best known community charity campaigns comes after the most successful fundraising year for the charity.

In 2004, Caring for Kids in association with Thorntons raised over £164,000 for good causes supporting local children. This year organisers hope the charity’s signature event the listener’s Charity Auction on October 29th and other fundraising efforts throughout the year will set new records.

Thorntons have fostered close links with Caring for Kids over many years. In addition to the firm’s five-figure sponsorship, Thorntons staff in Angus, Perth and Dundee have run their own fund raising activities and helped man phone lines during the annual charity auction.

Jack Robertson, Thorntons Chairman, commented : "We are delighted to have the opportunity to continue our sponsorship of Caring for Kids.

"As a very long established Tayside firm with strong community links in Perthshire, Forfar, Arbroath and Dundee we know what a difference Caring for Kids makes to the lives of children and families in all these places.

"It is one of the most thoughtful, successful and energetic charity campaigns anywhere in the country and at Thorntons we are very proud to have the chance to add our support as sponsors for a further year."

Ally Bally, of Caring for Kids said "Having worked successfully with Thorntons over the last twelve months we are absolutely delighted that they have decided to continue as main sponsors of Radio Tays listeners charity Caring for Kids.

Their commitment to the charity has been fantastic and we hope that our

relationship will continue to go from strength to strength, Thorntons Solicitors are a company that we are truly proud to be associated with."
