Story

Majestic Buyer Matt Fowkes teams up with supplier Alban Caceret (Vice President) and Maud Kessler (Export Manager) from Commanderie de Peyrassol to run the French Riviera Marathon on 3rd Nov to fundraise for The Majestic Charitable Foundation.

Update from Matt 11th October: Since starting training for the marathon, over the past few weeks, my family has received some very sad news. My cousin, Grace, 11, has sadly been diagnosed with cancer. As you can imagine, this has been a complete shock for the family and everyone who knows Grace. She’s a wonderful kid, very active and loves football amongst her many other hobbies. It’s still very early days since the diagnosis but she will be supported and treated by specialists and team at Birmingham Children's Hospital.

Given the new personal nature of this marathon, Majestic have kindly supported that all the sponsorship raised for the Majestic Charitable Foundation associated with me and the team at Peyrassol undertaking this marathon will be given in full to Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity. Whilst she is supported by the fantastic doctors and nurses of the NHS, I hope that whatever sponsorship I can raise can make a difference for the children who have to go to BCH.

I appreciate that many of you have sponsored me already and hopefully understand the decision to redirect the sponsorship to BCH Charity. If you haven’t yet sponsored me, my family and I would be incredibly grateful. Please can you help me get beyond the £3,000 target.

Thanks in advance,

Matt Fowkes
