Agents run for Charity in London Marathon

April 22, 2016

Here we are again, London Marathon this Sunday and as usual  so many agents get involved in this event for the sake of their chosen charities.

I have just picked a few at random who I would like to mention on here:

Charles Thursfield of  Harveys Estate Agents is running the London Marathon this weekend in aid of Children with Cancer.

Estate agent Ashley Cain, from Swindon, is preparing to take to the streets of London with team NSPCC in the Virgin Money London Marathon on Sunday, April 24. Along with his teammates, the director of Moovahome Estate Agents is hoping to smash the target to raise £2.3m needed to answer every child who contacts its ChildLine Service.

Paul Higgins-Drysdale, senior sales consultant at Leaders in Chichester, is tackling the 26.2-mile course around the streets of the capital on 24th April. All of the money he raises will be donated to Leaders’ Charity of the Year, which supports all 53 children’s hospices in the UK, including Chestnut Tree House in West Sussex.

Estateagentnetworking wants to say a big “thank you” to those mentioned above,   and all those other runners participating in this years London Marathon, by so doing they are all supporting well deserving charities. The number of Estate and letting agents that get involved in raising funds for charity in one way or the other is quite amazing, this year in the London Marathon will be no different. Well done all.
