Marie Curie provides care and support for people living with any terminal illness across the UK. Our nurses work night and day in people’s homes and our hospices offer specialist care. We also support people emotionally, provide practical information, and match them with trained volunteers.

Story

GVA Grimley are taking on the Birmingham Half Marathon once again but this year we have doubled our team and doubled our target!

We are pleased (and some may say crazy) to have 20% of our Birmingham office running this year, that's 65 members of staff in total!

We are running for some fantastic charities. We pledge that
75 % of the money raised will go to Marie Curie Cancer Care, who provide free nursing care to cancer patients and those with other terminal illnesses in their own homes. Take a look at their inspiring work: http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/whatwedo/

We are also pledging to contribute 25% of the money raised to charities nominated by some of our runners as part of their personal motivation. One of these is Meningitis Trust, who work to improve the lives of people affected by meningitis. Take a look at the fantastic support they provide: http://www.meningitis-trust.org/about/

Additionally, we would like to support the GVA Grimley regional charity team on important local initiatives.

Thank you for your support and wish us luck!
