Across the Barclaycard Technology Office (BTO) we have chosen to support the National Deaf Children's Society as our charity for 2009.

Through a number of events in 2009, we are looking to raise the maximum amount we can for The NDCS - this is our Big Climb.

We have recently completed the 3 peaks challenge, 3 teams of willing volunteers braved the elements over a weekend in July to tackle the 3 highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales.

We have also held a Karoke evening, and revived such gameshow classics as Blankety Blank and Bullseye, raising £000's of pounds in the process.

Further events, including an auction and a Charity Ball will be taking place over the next few months. If you are interested in these events, mail us at Craig.Ashby@Barclaycard.co.uk

Our funds will be matched £ for £ by Barclays so every £ you give is worth just that little bit more.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor your friends and colleagues in BTO:

The National Deaf Children's Society gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
