THE CHALLENGE
PRA Health Sciences Livingston office has challenged their employees to walk (or run) 100 miles during the month of February! However, this is more than just a bit of friendly competition, we are using this opportunity to promote mental and physical wellbeing whilst raising money for two charities we have chosen to support this month; Cancer Research UK and Together for Short Lives.

Regular exercise is essential to maintain a good quality of life however due to the current circumstances this can be difficult to achieve; but not impossible! We don't have to be athletes in prime condition all year round, even just reducing our time spent being sedentary can help us to improve our health - what is the easiest way to do this? WALKING! We hope this challenge can inspire you to make healthy decisions and create good habits.
We also want to use this challenge to highlight the issues that many charities worldwide are experiencing due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many charitable organisations have been unable to operate during this time therefore raising awareness and donations is needed now more than ever! So please follow the links above to read the stories of the charities we have chosen to represent this month and also use the donation link on this page to give whatever you can.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Philanthropy, charitable giving, and social responsibility are more than buzz words to us—they’re ideas we hold up as ideals. Our passion and commitment to improving lives extend far beyond our work. We believe that it is our obligation as a company to help our people find meaningful ways to respond to the needs of others around the world.
It is not about a single program or charity. It’s about helping people wherever and whenever we can. From donation drives to community events, and everything in between, our employees’ ongoing efforts inspire kindness and empower action.
