Congratulations to Hamptons employee Gabriella Farrow, who has been awarded a ‘corporate charity champion of the year’ special commendation for 2016.

Gabriella is marketing assistant at Hamptons International and has been responsible for the Cancer Research partnership since she joined the business in July 2015.

Hamptons International has fundraised for Cancer Research since 2013, to date raising over £200,000

Gabriella works with the Hamptons International network to ensure each office hits its fundraising targets.

After taking over the main handling of the partnership, she advertised for a new committee through the internal magazine and is responsible for the increased involvement of regional directors and executive team alike. Gabriella arranges quarterly meetings and in 2016 oversaw a large variety of corporate fundraising events.

Lesley Cairns, managing director of Hamptons International, said: “We are so proud that Gabriella’s hard work and commitment to our partner, Cancer Research, has been recognised.

“Gaby works tirelessly to engage and motivate colleagues and has helped us to raise tens of thousands of pounds as a result.

“I would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who donated, those who dedicated themselves to being involved and to all who turned out to cheer us on. We have raised an amazing amount of money for a charity that has touched us all in some way.”
