In January 2023 we were devastated to lose our friend and colleague Zara Chalcraft suddenly after a short and aggressive battle with lung cancer. As someone who has worked with and managed Zara for several years across two organisations, she has left a big hole in both teams and not to mention as a friend to many of us. Her water cooler moments, sound advice and constant source of inspiration will be sorely missed. 

We all vowed to ‘be more Zara’ and given her love of marathons (and our lack of loving marathons), what better way to do something in her honour while fundraising, then to hike a marathon this summer! 

Thanks for donating and encouraging us all to #BeMoreZed.
