Andrew Harrison, chief executive, P&H said: “The relevance of Teenage Cancer Trust to both P&H colleagues and customers alike is huge and I’m so proud of everyone who has been involved over the years, pushing us to this extraordinary total of £2.3 million.

“Having so many wonderful colleagues baking cakes, climbing mountains, hosting regional balls and golf days, running marathons, wading through mud and much more, it's somehow in our DNA. Working for this great cause which supports young people with cancer is a privilege and I am personally delighted to extend this partnership for a further year.”

Jess Coombs, head of high value fundraising at Teenage Cancer Trust, added: “Our partnership with Plumbing and Heating is remarkable. Thanks to the passion and commitment of everyone in the branches, offices and warehouse locations over the last seven years, together we’ve raised an incredible amount of money.

“The continued and ongoing support means that we are ever closer to supporting every young person with cancer in the UK. On behalf of all of the young people we support, thank you Plumbing and Heating.”
