Pure raises £4,372 for children’s medical research charity

We have raised over £4,300 for a children’s medical research charity by competing in Race the Sun.

Two teams from our London office climbed England’s second highest mountain, canoed Lake Thirlmere, and cycled 48 miles – starting at sunrise and finishing before sunset.

The £4,372, which surpasses our £4,000 target, goes to Action Medical Research. Having already developed a vaccine for Polio and preventative cures for Spina Bifida this fantastic charity have now set their sights on preventing meningitis and pneumonia, in addition to continually improving the quality of life for disabled children.

We would like to thank all of our clients, colleagues, family and friends who donated to the team’s efforts.
