A NORTH-East firm of accountants took part in a weekend of fundraising events.
Clive Owen and Co were involved in the world's biggest coffee morning on Friday in aid of Macmillan Cancer Relief.
This is the sixth year that Clive Owen and Co has participated in the coffee morning at its Darlington and Durham offices. This year almost £100 was raised.
Marketing manager Alison Nicholson continued the fundraising on Sunday when she took part in the Great North Run.
She was running to raise money for the national charity Leukaemia Care, which provides support for sufferers and their families.
With sponsorship from friends, family and colleagues she raised £791.20.
She said: "I have always wanted to run a marathon and raising money for Leukaemia Care in the Great North Run was a fantastic opportunity."
