DORSET PLANE PULL · 26 August 2013
CST is a successful company and we strongly believe it is important to give back to the Community, what we can.
As CST UK we were looking for a local charity which might not have the visibility and publicity like the national/international ones but who does an extraordinary job for terminally or seriously ill children in the Dorset area. When we met withe Sue (very energetic lady!!), the corporate fund-raiser, I think we were all chuffed by what they do every day, not only with the kids themselves, but the support Julia's House gives to the parents and siblings. It only survives with donations, unfortunately the government only contributes with a small percentage, hence all donations, even the smallest count!!
All the money Julia's House raises go for special equipment, toys, in-house carers, home-visiting staff, days out for the Families and more....If you visit their website you will realise how much our support is needed. One sentence Sue said, stayed in my mind, "the children in Julia's House just want to be children , not sick children!!"
We have decided take part of the Dorset Plane Pull challenge (ooops!!) As the name implies, we will attempt to pull a 35,000kg Boeing 737 for a distance of 50 meters, and to top that, ideally in the fastest time....
The Plane Pull is a fun event (......hard but fun!) and we really hope our enthusiasm will bring more people together to help us and raise as much as we can!!! The target is 500GBP, but nothing stop us to go over it, right? Please donate what you can and send this link to anyone, you think, would like to help us!!
