We have also contributed to the fundraising by our Board of Advisor, Rosemary Gallagher, for her participation in the London Marathon in support of MENCAP.

 

We sponsored a walk from Canterbury to Rome by Mark Lancaster, the Founder's stepbrother, in aid of the East Kent Hospitals Charity.

The founder, Richard Clarke, also supported a range of fundraising activities for Brainwave special needs children charity.  He chaired the Fundraising Committee in London.  He organised activities in the City of London included a Santa Dash, James Bond Themed Party, Question of Sport Dinner and Bollywood Ball.

Richard served in an advisory role, with respect to governance, for a charity set up in his village to support vulnerable people during the covid pandemic, Tickhill Community Connections.  He is now supporting that organisation with fundraising.
