Dress Down for Charity
Some of Elmbridge Borough Council's staff have the opportunity to "dress down" on a Friday of each month to support both local and national charities in turn.
Staff will make a voluntary contribution in exchange for the ability to dress down that day - but don't worry, you won't be seeing staff in ripped jeans and inappropriate T-shirts!
The next Dress Down Day will take place on 21st January 2011 and we will be supporting |The Rainbow Trust
Re-usable notices will be displayed in public areas of Council buildings that are taking part in the scheme.
|We value your feedback and will keep you updated with how we are doing and the amounts raised.
