The bpma held its annual Christmas lunch at the Guoman Tower Hotel in London on Friday 14th December, in attendance were some of the industry’s top names. This annual event is our major annual fundraising event and this year’s chosen charity was Lifelites, a charity that provides fun and educational technology for children in all the children’s hospices in the UK. A remarkable £5850 was raised through our charity raffle and auction on the day. The Sourcing Team were delighted for the second year in a row to be nominated for Catalogue Cover of the year – sadly, we didn’t take first place this year – but it’s great to be nominated out of the 100’s of companies in our association.
