Anna, Ben, Neil, Natalie, Tim and Graham are running the Bupa London 10k in memory of Jules, Anna's Dad's best friend who tragically passed away in October. Jules was such a funny, generous and wonderful man who cherished his wife and two young boys and who we will miss so very much.
The Richmond Fellowship are a very important charity and they supported Jules and his family at a time of great need. They are specialists at helping people with mental health problems live independently, find work and make the most of life. They help people break free of mental stigma, overcome isolation and take control of their lives.

All the money raised will go directly to The Richmond Fellowship who are specialist providers of mental health services. They help over 9,000 people each year and offer a wide range of housing, care, employment and community support across more than 120 services. The charity require much needed funds to carry on with their wonderful work and support more people to live independent lives.
The team agree that 10k won’t be as challenging as say a marathon or climbing Kilimanjaro (well for them it might!), but hopefully the fantastic work of this charity will inspire you to donate some of your pennies. They are all training hard to ensure they actually reach the finishing line and have lots of bakathons and fundraising curry nights lined up to try and raise funds and also create more awareness for a fantastic cause.
We have opened a donations page at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-web/fundraiser/showFundraiserProfilePage.action?userUrl=CharityPeople
Thank you so much for your support.
