CC1 Reading half-marathon 2022
Tax deductible
Team Charlie Charlie One will be hitting the streets of Reading for the annual half-marathon on Sunday 3rd April to raise money for Scotty's Little Soldiers, a charity dedicated to supporting children and young people who have lost a parent serving in the British Armed Forces.
Charlie Charlie One's Clare Marx (SEM Rush lead and digital marketer) explains why she suggested that our team raise money for Scotty's Little Soldiers;
"It’s such a wonderful charity that’s very close to our hearts, since our lives are woven into the military community. The support and comfort offered by Scotty's Little Soldiers, to military children who have lost a parent is unique and deserves every penny of fundraising we can manage. It’s a subject we all hope we never have to face but we are extremely grateful that a charity like Scotty's Little Soldiers is there for families in those times past, present and future".
On the day the team will be made up of Clare Marx, Caroline Stewart, Meredyth Grant and Rebecca Coughlin (we're still convincing her, but if it's in black and white it must be happening). Louise Biddle from our Australia office will be running the same distance, on the same day from Down Under, Louise is also chief negotiator in getting Belle signed up too!
Scotty's Little Soldiers are aiming to support 1000+ children and young people annually by 2030. They are currently supporting just over half that number.
Meredyth Grant, CC1 founder says;
"2022 is all about getting back to business. It's also about remembering where we've come from as a team. Charlie Charlie One as a company is very much the product of the military community. Its roots are in military service and the lived experience of life in forces families; the bitterness, the sweetness, the laughter, the tears. Whether it's investing in people or supporting military charities I hope that service to others will always be at the beating heart of our business".
