Established just over three years ago, Insight.Out is a financial planning company whose services include pension transfers, SSASs, investments, financial and tax planning, and protections, and helping clients to achieve their financial goals.
One of the company’s goals for 2019 was to establish a charity partnership with a Northern Ireland based charity. Following a survey of staff, the company elected to partner with Action Cancer with the team at Insight.Out hoping to raise £5,000 throughout the year. These funds will help Action Cancer screen an additional 62 ladies aged 40-49 and 70+ or provide another 42 counselling sessions for local people affected by cancer.
The fundraising partnership will help raise funds to support a range of cancer awareness, prevention and support services including Action Cancer’s unique breast screening service, which aims to detect cancer earlier.
Speaking at the launch of the partnership, Managing Director of Insight.Out Financial, Jayne Gibson, said:
“Insight.Out Financial is thrilled to announce its charity partnership with Action Cancer. As a Northern Ireland company, we are really proud to be able to work with a charity that directly supports people in this region who are affected by cancer by raising money that creates and maintains services that save lives and resources that comfort, reassure and support those living with cancer.”
Lucy McCusker, Corporate Fundraising Manager, added:
“One person every hour is diagnosed with cancer in NI and Action Cancer provide a range of services to support local people through their cancer journey. We’re delighted to be working alongside Insight.Out Financial and we would encourage the public to get behind their ambitious fundraising campaign.
“The team at Insight.Out has planned an exciting range of fundraises, from static cycles, to a Great Gatsby evening, to taking part in our Bra Walk on Friday 14th June in Belfast City Centre. We are so grateful as these funds will undoubtedly make a huge impact to our early detection and prevention work”.
Action Cancer’s mission is to save lives and support people affected by cancer. The charity provide free digital breast screening for women aged 40 – 49 and 70+ (outside the NHS screening range), M.O.T. health checks for men and women, and health and lifestyle advice on the Big Bus, a mobile unit which travels to 225 locations throughout Northern Ireland each year. Last year Action Cancer screened 9,729 ladies, for every 1000 screenings 5- 6 women have their cancer detected when it may have gone unnoticed.
