Video Helps Raise 97 Grand!
We were delighted to receive a big thanks from Variety the children’s charity in Yorkshire for helping them to raise a staggering £97,000 at this year’s Yorkshire Residential Property Awards.
Confirmation of the success came in a letter sent to us from Duncan Syers, the Chairman of Variety’s Yorkshire Region, who said:”Thank you so much for all of your help with the Awards. It’s safe to say that all the feedback we received relating to your films was very positive.
With your help we were able to raise a fantastic £97,000 and the means to proceed with the Variety Yorkshire Big Build in aid of Springwater Special School in Harrogate which I am sure you will agree, is an incredible outcome!”
The awards are a celebration of Yorkshire’s residential property industry and were hosted by Welsh TV presenter Gethin Jones, formerly of Blue Peter. Morgans, the Yorkshire sales and rental company, accepted the Best Estate Agency award at this year’s event, held in the prestigious surroundings of Bowcliffe Hall in Bramham. Morgan’s Managing Director, Jonathan Morgan was awarded the life-time achievement award at last years’ event and accepted the best agency award this year from Gethin Jones.
Jonathan said; ‘‘it was a massive honour for me to pick up the award last year but this was about the entire team and Nigel and I were absolutely delighted to accept the award on behalf of everyone at Morgans. We pride ourselves on our approach and our work-ethic and
we look forward with excitement to the next 20 years.”
Variety children’s charity raises money for disabled, disadvantaged and deserving children in Yorkshire, with the money raised from the Yorkshire Residential Property Awards and other events funding the cause. Jonathan Morgan introduced the Big Build appeal with a video of Springwater School in Harrogate, shot by Good Call Media, which encouraged everyone to dig deep.
Good Call Media is also carrying out filming in advance of this year’s Variety Yorkshire Business Awards, which is another major event in the regional calendar and will be held in December in Leeds. We are also producing a large range of videos to be used by Variety in London as part of our developing relationship with the charity.
