On Thursday 27th September, in Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Deutsche Bank employees across the UK were invited to donate a day’s salary to its two UK Charities of the Year through the bank’s ‘One Day’ initiative. The day was a huge success with a record £1.27m raised, with Cure Leukaemia receiving half of these funds in total (£100,000 more than the charity raised in an entire year back in 2012).
