HMV have announced that CLIC Sargent will be their 'charity partner' through to 2010, meaning the children's cancer charity will benefit from fund raising activities held across the retailer's network of HMV and Fopp stores. Funds will also be raised by events for staff and suppliers - such as the recent Annual Golf Day and the planned HMV & Fopp Inter-Regional 5-Aside Football.
Confirming his firm's chosen charity, HMV boss Simon Fox told reporters: "I am delighted that HMV and Fopp are working so enthusiastically with CLIC Sargent - not only to help raise much needed funding, but also to increase awareness of the wonderful and vital support this organisation gives to children and young people with cancer".
