Employees from HSBC Coventry Service Centre helped the LOROS Fundraising Team (on one of the hottest days of the year so far) to spread the word about Hinckley 5k and the Colourfun Mile which are going to take place on Wednesday 18th of June in Hinckley.

On Monday 19th of May teams of employees from HSBC took over Hinckley Town Centre to inform the general public, on behalf of LOROS, about the planned event and road closures. With the sun shining down on the people of Hinckley it made for a wonderful volunteering opportunity for HSBC and the locals were friendly and receptive to the cause, as always!

Magdalena Korytkowska, Partnership Development Assistant said, “It’s great when companies offer to donate their time in this way.
