Freshwater goes the extra mile to support Kidney Wales
A team from Freshwater Wales went the extra mile earlier this month by running the Cardiff 10K to raise money for its client, Kidney Wales Foundation.For the last few months, runners from the Cardiff office were hard at work to train in preparation for the event, which saw the team come in 65th place out of the 104 corporate teams that took part.
The team, which comprised Carolyn Pugsley, Richard Hale, Haydn Evans and Kirsty Callingham, raised £275 for the charity, which will be put towards kidney patient care and wellbeing.
Kirsty Callingham, senior account executive at Freshwater Wales, said: “A team from our office has run in the Cardiff 10K every year for the last three years, and although it’s hard work, we’ve grown to love donning our daps in support of the Kidney Wales Foundation!
“After working with the charity for so long, it’s a fantastic feeling for us to be able to give something back and help raise money for such a good cause.”
The corporate teams were able to register along with more than 3,000 individuals for this year’s challenge, with all money raised going to help children across Wales who are suffering with kidney disease or renal failure.
The Kidney Wales Foundation is one of Wales’ oldest and largest charities and provides hope and support for those suffering with kidney disease. Currently there are more than 490 people listed for a kidney transplant and many hundreds more undergoing dialysis. The HSBC Cardiff 10K is just one of the many initiatives undertaken by the Kidney Wales Foundation to raise awareness of kidney failure and disease.
