Members of our team here at VAR are taking part in the Santa Fun Run at Burghley House on the 11th December 16 (Dressed as Santa Claus's).

We are trying to raise funds for our Emergency Families Fund.

This fund is dedicated to helping people and families based in Rutland who are in desperate situations to get back on their feet to a happier, safer future.

Our fund helps all kinds of people, from those who've escaped abusive relationships, setting up a new home. Payment towards school uniforms for families struggling to make ends meet for their children. To help rehabilitated people to get the things they need to return to work and the elderly and disabled.

Anyone can find themselves in an emergency and without support, it can be extremely difficult to be able to do everything yourself without a little bit of help and understanding. Our fund is set up to help those who may not be able to rely on family and friends in times of need.

Please help us to raise as much as possible for this great cause, so that we can help others when they need it most.

Thank you for your support for the community.
