Charity gets boost from Southampton Airport event
03.09.06
The 1,200 members of staff at Southampton Airport pulled out all the stops in a bid to send a charity appeal soaring sky high. Employees at the airport held a Daisy Day to raise money for the Wessex Cancer Trust.
The special event was organised as part of the BBC Daisy Appeal, which aims to raise £1m for the charity by next April. This included Radio Solent presenter Mike Powell broadcasting his morning show live from the airport.
Highlights of the event included a visit from Daisy the Cow who grazed in the airport terminal, a sponsored row by a local fire crew, a guess the baby competition, a flight auction and a live performance by The Clean Briefs, who have released a charity single in honour of the appeal.
