Swire Oilfield Services has donated money to “Cash for Kids”. We nominated Cash for Kids this year because we specifically wanted to help disadvantaged children in the local communities in which we operate; grants are made to groups, organisations and projects throughout the North-east of . As well as the initial £11,220 donation by Swire, Staff has been supported to help raise more money throughout the year by various fundraising events in the hope of raising this total to over £20,000 by the year end.
