MAINTENANCE MANAGER AT LOCAL CARE HOME ACHEIVES THIRD PLACE IN FUNDRAISER OF THE YEAR

Martin Moran, maintenance manager at Bupa’s Field House Nursing Home in Harpenden has been awarded third place in the ‘Fundraiser of the Year’ category of the Community Champion Awards. Bupa’s Community Champion Awards recognise the efforts of employees and dedication to fundraising, volunteering and engaging with their communities. Martin Moran was awarded third place in the Fundraiser of the Year category for his sustained efforts and dedication to raising money for charity. Back in 2007, Martin participated in Bupa’s Thailand Challenge, where he joined follow Bupa colleagues from all around the world to renovate Sarnelli House Orphanage. Since returning from volunteering in Thailand, Martin has been working hard in order to continually raise money for Sarnelli House, as well as other children’s healthcare charities. Martin Moran, maintenance manager at Bupa’s Field House said: ‘I felt very lucky to have been given the opportunity through Bupa, to go over to Thailand back in 2007 and my time there inspired me to continue to try and make a difference to Sarnelli House Orphanage, even after I returned to the UK. I feel proud that Bupa have noticed my efforts, and I plan to continue fundraising.” Colleagues from across Bupa were invited to join Bupa Chairman, Lord Leitch for a prestigious awards ceremony that took place recently at the Berkeley Hotel in Knightsbridge, London.
