Silverpoint Raises Money for Volunteer Fire Fighters


On Saturday, August 18th, two Silverpoint employees took part in a charity football match at the Tenerife Top Training pitch in Adeje. 

Huge fundraising efforts were made by everyone involved to replace the equipment which was destroyed during the fire fighting endeavours against the fires which raged throughout Tenerife this summer. 

Telemarketing Manager Guy Japhet and Canvasser Stephen Wright formed part of the select XI which played against Tenerife Sur. After a challenging match, the final score was 7-2 to Tenerife Sur.

After the match, everyone headed to the follow-up charity event which was held at the Full Monty Bar in Playa de las Americas. Despite the disappointing football score, spirits were high and everyone enjoyed the day which was packed with children’s activities – including bouncy castles and face painting – and live entertainment provided by the acts for free.

A raffle was also held on the same day which raised a large sum for the volunteer fire fighters. There were loads of great prizes up for grabs to tempt everyone, including a week of accommodation in Tenerife donated by Silverpoint.
