THIS MONTH
PICO ANETO
A huge well done to the 22 participants, including teams from Logica, Ten Lifestyle and PSD/Portfolio, who ventured to the glaciers of Pico Aneto to take part in one of Kids Company’s gruelling overseas challenges! They completed an exhausting three day hike covering an altitude of 3404 meters to the highest point in the Pyrenees. To see some of their fantastic photographs go to the Kids Company facebook page.
COMING SOON
Kids Company still has some places left for the festive DIFC Annual Santa 5k around Greenwich Park on Sunday 5th December. Enjoy a Christmas themed run around Greenwich with 2000 dressed Santas, followed by some well deserved mulled wine and mice pies at the Kids Company stand afterwards.
Registration is £20 and we want everyone to raise at least £100 in sponsorship. Please contact your Account Manager or Suzie Curran (suzie.curran@kidsco.org.uk) who is coordinating the event for more details. Friends, family, spouses and clients are also welcome to take part.
