A Muddy bit of Fundraising for our Teams!

Every year, Marie Eaton (our Finance Manager) takes on a new challenge to raise well-needed funds and awareness for the Foundation of Prader-Willi Research UK (FPWR UK). The charity is one that is close to our hearts as it provides funds for research into Prader-Willi Syndrome, which our director, Vicki William’s daughter was diagnosed with at 2 weeks old.

This year was no different.

On the 27th April, Marie gathered over 30 team members and friends of Almond Family Pubs and triumphed over the Born Survivor’s mud-fuelled, assault course. This wasn’t just a regular mud-run, we’re talking about a gruelling (but oh-so-rewarding) 10k obstacle course designed by Royal Marine commandos, featuring mud, sweat, and probably a few tears.

So far, the team has raised an amazing £2,875, up and over their original goal!
This money is vital for the Foundation for Prader-Willi Research UK, so that they can continue with research projects that will eliminate the challenges that PWS presents.

Marie is a regular fundraiser for FPWR UK and we are so grateful for her commitment and fundraising… We wonder what she will do next year?
