It is with the deepest sadness that over the weekend we have been informed that one of our previous employee’s has lost their battle to cancer.

All of Echo Personnel staff are thinking of David and his family during this indescribable sad time.

Echo Personnel are proud to reveal that we are holding a parachute jump in aid of charity on the 10th August 2019. This is now our fourth local charity event of the year and we are very excited to announce that we have chosen to support Cransley Hospice in Kettering for this event.

Cransley Hospice is a close and local to home charity that is a very important part of the community. They provide care for patients with a life-limiting illness who need the specialist help of hospice care.

10 of our colleagues are bravely taking the plunge from over 10,000ft. All money raised from this event will go directly to Cransley hospice as the cost of the jump is being covered by our colleagues and Echo Personnel.

If you would like to donate please feel free to visit one of Echo’s branches in Northampton, Wellingborough, Kettering or Corby.
