We ran 10k yesterday in London to raise money for the Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths (FSID) and everyone completed the race within their personal target and so far we have raised over £1k for the children’s charity.
Starting at Hyde Park Corner and finishing at Horse Guards we joined 26,000 runners and ran past Piccadilly, St James Palace, Trafalgar Square, Somerset House, St Paul’s Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Tate Modern, London Eye, Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey.
There is still opportunity to sponsor us over the next month. Please visit; www.justgiving.com/thegrocompany.
Rob Holmes, founder of The Gro Company; “I am very proud of my team for getting involved and training so hard in order to raise money for our special charity FSID. They have done extremely well raised lots of money to help FISD continue their worthy cause”.
Please sponsor us and help FSID raise £100,000 for their fantastic charity.
