International IT solutions provider, Logicalis is proud to announce it has raised £25,600 for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSHCC), at its annual charity golf event held at Wentworth Golf Club in Surrey. Logicalis UK has now raised a total of over £50,000 for GOSHCC over the last 12 months through its fundraising events.

Relying heavily on public support to provide world-class care to hundreds of children everyday, Great Ormond Street Hospital remains Logicalis’ chosen corporate charity. Mark Starkey, Managing Director of Logicalis UK, presented a cheque for £25,600 at a ceremony held at the Hospital on the 31st July.

Starkey explains, “We’re constantly amazed and inspired by what Great Ormond Street Hospital does on a daily basis. It is critical service and industry do all they can to enable GOSH to maintain its first-rate reputation as a world leader in the care of young patients and their families.”

Logicalis’ 2014 charity golf event took place at Wentworth Golf Club on the 9th July. The company has also hosted a series of other fundraising events over the course of the last 12 months, including a hugely successful Christmas event, which raised over £30,000 for the charity.

Starkey continues, “Our fundraising this year has been a huge success and we would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who donated to such a great cause.”

Catherine Sheard, Fundraising Executive at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, added, “We are really grateful that Logicalis chose to support Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity again this year, as the funds it’s raised will make a vital difference to not only the children we treat, but their families as well. We rely heavily on fundraisers to help us buy essential equipment, rebuild and refurbish our hospital sites and fund vital research. We would like to say thank you to Logicalis on behalf of the staff, parents and children at Great Ormond Street Hospital.”
