This is the second year that Jessops has fundraised for the charity. In 2004 Jessops’ ‘Click for CLIC’ campaign raised £50,000.

Fundraising events included a Jessops-sponsored Parliamentary Photography Competition in which MPs and Peers submitted photographs that they have taken during their Parliamentary duties.

CLIC Sargent will continue to be Jessops’ charity of the year for 2006 and the company has set itself the target of £80,000.
