Working Links at Red Cross' Rainbow Day

Working Links staff cleaning dummies

Kind-hearted staff from Working Links in Glasgow have lent a helping hand to the British Red Cross.

 

Eight of the organisation’s Business Support team helped out at the centre, stripping, sterilising and re-building the charity’s First Aid dummies.

 

As part of the tenth anniversary of Working Links, an organisation that helps tackle social exclusion and poverty through its work across the UK, all its 2,000-strong staff are to give up a day of work to volunteer for charity – known as a Rainbow Day.

 

Amber Shaw, Quality Assurance Coordinator at Glasgow’s Working Links, said: “Everyone at the charity was grateful to have helping hands and put us to work straight away.

 

“We had a mammoth task of re-building the ‘Annie Dolls’ that the British Red Cross send out for First Aid training, and labelling them so they could be issued and tracked more easily.

 

“Our Rainbow Day proved to be not only an advantage for the charity but had great results in building our team’s relationship. We had such good fun as well.”
