NCASS – Northern Chartered Accountant Students’ Society

Throughout 2015/16 NCASS have been supporting and fundraising for Parkinson’s UK. During the Newcastle and Teesside dinner, we hosted a game of “Heads or Tails” and a raffle, with prizes kindly donated by a number of local businesses. As a result of both the heads and tails game and the raffle, NCASS managed to raise a remarkable £2,000 and £1,000 respectively for Parkinson’s UK. With thanks to a generous contribution from NorSCA. The total raised for Parkinson’s UK was an amazing £3,056 for the year!

Abby Robinson from Parkinson’s UK congratulated NCASS on raising such a remarkable amount saying that both dinners were successful evenings where such a significant amount of money was able to be raised.
