Congratulations to our team of twelve runners and supporters that successfully completed the adidas Women's 5k Challenge last Sunday, in Hyde Park, alongside more than 40,000 women.
Mission Care's team chose to raise funds for the Living God Orphanage in Suryapet, that Mission Care has recently announced support of.
So far, their combined sponsorship total is likely to reach more than £1,500 plus Gift Aid, which will go a huge way to improving day to day living condition for the one hundred children at the orphanage.
Jonathan Crisp, Executive Director, commented 'I'm delighted that our members of staff and supporters care so much about the work that we do, that they are prepared to go the extra mile (or 5k) to support us!'
Thank you to all of our runners for completing the race and to our colleagues who supported our team on the day!
