Friday Fundraiser - Team JMW

Today's Friday Fundraiser is Team JMW. This week we have chosen to highlight a team just starting out with their fundraising in an attempt to rally some support and to see if we can all get behind them. 



Team JMW is made up of Danielle Gibson, Anoushka Shepherd and Katie Nolan. They will all be running the Great North Run in September this year. The team all work for JMW Solicitors who are members of the Child Brain Injury Trust Legal Services Directory

The Great North Run is one of the most iconic and sought after races in the UK, those fortune enough to run have to also undertake the challenge of training for the half marathon. Now imagine you hold your school's record for the slowest 100 metre sprint, as one of these ladies does. I think it is time we rally round and give the team the support they deserve. 

We often celebrate the victory after the race, but I think it is important to encourage and remind everyone of all the hard work that takes place before race day. So today's blog is about celebrating all the work our fundraisers put in to train for events like the Great North Run. 

If you would like to support JMW, please visit their Just Giving page and make a donation. 

Or if you would like to be involved in next year's Great North Run team, or other fundraising opportunities with the Child Brain Injury Trust, then please contact our Fundraiser Coordinator, Emily Honey

Thank you to Danielle, Anoushka and Katie for all the hard work and training they have put in so far and best of luck for the coming months. We will all be supporting you!
