BANK worker Rich Coffey took time out from his day job to get involved in fundraising at Culcheth’s Twiss Green Primary School.
Rich, who works for Barclays at Radbroke Hall, Knutsford, raised £850 by selling tickets at the Twiss Green Primary firework display.
Barclays matched his fundraising as part of their community investment programme “Charity Begins at Work” which means a total of £1,600 was raised.
Community relations officer Gareth Lewis said: “At Barclays we strive to strengthen local communities in which we live and work by supporting a range of causes from local schools to centres for older people. This is a fantastic example of Barclays staff fundraising with the local community to achieve something which we hope will make a real and lasting difference.”
The bank’s community investment programme raised up to £52.2 million in 2008.
