Saniflo UK has long supported Cancer Research UK, raising thousands of pounds through activities including a charity bike ride from London to Paris last September, a hike up Ben Nevis in Scotland in 2014 and a dress down Friday every week.

During the past few months, the staff at the South Ruislip office have raised £667 from their dress down Friday where they each donate £1 for the privilege and these funds will be split between prostate and breast cancer research.

Saniflo UK customer services and marketing manager Ann Boardman said: “Saniflo is a strong supporter of Cancer Research UK, before and after losing our former managing director Paul Newson in January 2014. The charity doesn’t receive any government funding, so it’s badly needed. The dress down Friday is a bit of fun for a serious cause and it’s amazing to see how those pounds pile up quickly. The money’s going to do some good.”
