Just Employment Law raises over £73,000 to raise awareness of pancreatic cancer

Glasgow lawyers Just Employment Law have raised an incredible £73,140 in an online auction held in November for Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month (PCAM).

The auction raised vital funds for Pancreatic Cancer Action Scotland (PCAS), of whom Just Employment Law are long-term supporters.

Some of the highest-selling items included a rare copy of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service which was signed by Ian Fleming and sold for £11,030. A first edition set of The Karla Trilogy by John Le Carré sold for £6,500 and a limited edition Cartier Santos Dumont watch sold for £7,000.

David McRae, managing director of Just Employment Law, said: “Five years ago my eyes were opened to Pancreatic Cancer when I lost my mother. I simply could not believe the low survival rates; the lack of early detection; and the chronic lack of funding for this aggressive strain of cancer.

“From that point on I resolved to support PCAS to fund research and awareness. My colleagues and I at JEL are delighted to be in a position to support PCAS and are always humbled by the backing we receive from the business community and general public. We stand with all who are affected by this awful disease.”
