Cynthia Spencer Hospice received more than £1,000 of additional funding thanks to a viral campaign on LinkedIn. #SingForCynthia, the brainchild of Ryan Bishop from


car leasing firm Silverstone Fleet Management in Northampton, encouraged people to sing a song of their choice to camera and then nominate two other people to take on the challenge. When uploading their video to LinkedIn, those that took part would donate to a JustGiving page, share the #SingForCynthia hashtag and share the link for others to donate.
