D&A rows the Thames for Moorfields

Dollond & Aitchison went the extra mile to raise funds for Moorfields Eye Hospital by sending eight of its executives down the Thames in two skiff boats.

The eight-man team including CEO Andy Ferguson travelled 33 miles to Henley and surpassed their £10,000 target by raising £12,000 for the charity.

D&A has a history of lending support to Moorfields and at the end of last year it pledged to raise enough money to build a children's play area, achieved through fundraising activities by D&A branches nationwide and staff from the Support Centre.
