Leading insurer, Hibernian, was awash with colour today as staff members donned their favourite team's colours in support of GOAL Jersey Day. Staff donned their favourite team jersey to enter a raffle to win a signed jersey by sporting legends such as Padraig Harrington, Jason Sherlock and Shay Given.

Speaking about the initiative, Hibernian volunteer programme co-ordinator, Sinead Kavanagh said: "Hibernian staff are delighted to be participating in GOAL Jersey Day. It's a great way to have a fun in the office and support a good cause. All staff have to do is step out of the usual business attire and into their favourite team jersey to help some of the world's most needy".
