Manning Stainton has launched ‘Mannings for Macmillan 2016’, on behalf of Macmillan Cancer Support.

It is the third time the estate agent has chosen Macmillan as the main focus of its annual fundraising, which has generated over £130,000, for a specialist Breast Cancer Nurse at St James’s Hospital in Leeds.

Colleagues from the 19 Sales and Lettings offices across West and North Yorkshire will be taking part in a range of activities throughout the year including the Knaresborough Bed Race and the Paint Green Leeds event in June.

Mark Manning, Sales Director at Manning Stainton says, ‘I am immensely proud of the way the entire company, as well as family, friends and our contacts in the local business community have embraced our previous fund raising efforts and I am confident they will do the same again this year.

‘Cancer affects far too many people, including those nearest to us. That is why everybody is so willing to do their bit to support the wonderful work Macmillan does.’

Matt Jameson, Macmillan’s Leeds Fund Raising Manager, said, “The charity is funded almost entirely through donations from the general public and the incredible support of companies like Manning Stainton.”
