Story

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">On April 4, Lee Palmer, Matt Kingston and Matt Loughlin from Aviva Bristol and Tom Burton from Cabot Primary School will attempt to cycle the 130 miles from our office to Big Ben, in aid of both Bristol Children&rsquo;s Hospital and Leukaemia &amp; Lymphoma Research. We&rsquo;ll also be ably supported by the invaluable duo of Kerry Hall and Ian Malley, who will be driving the route to provide food and drink as well as some much needed moral support!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">The charities have been chosen due to their relevance to the whole group. 2 of the team have had children who&rsquo;ve needed treatment at the children&rsquo;s hospital and between us we&rsquo;ve also lost friends and family members to Leukaemia &amp; Lymphoma. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Anything you can contribute would be hugely appreciated!!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">&nbsp;</span></strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Cots for Tots</span></em></strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Cots for Tots appeal is raising &pound;1 million to provide 4 life-saving cots and a new&nbsp;intensive care&nbsp;Suite at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St Michael&rsquo;s Hospital Bristol and a Family Accommodation Suite close by. </em></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is a very special place. &nbsp;The Unit cares for more than 600 babies every year from Bristol and all over the South West of England.
