Help decide BT’s second charity

23 September 2010

BT people across the UK have until Tuesday 5 October to vote in the ‘BT UK Charity Challenge’.

This new initiative gives all UK-based BT people the chance to choose the company’s second charity fundraising partner, in addition to ChildLine – the British Heart Foundation, Mercy Ships or Cancer Research UK.

You can vote online or by calling 0330 123 0607 until midnight on Tuesday 5 October. One person voting will be randomly selected to receive two guest tickets to attend either a future charity event of their choice at the BT Tower (eg BBC Children in Need in November) or two telethon studio audience tickets at BBC TV Centre in London, subject to availability.

The winning charity will be announced on BT Today in mid-October.

To help you decide which charity to vote for, Cancer Research UK, the British Heart Foundation and Mercy Ships have each made a short film explaining the work they do and how money raised by BT on their behalf would be used.
