Wales & West Housing is 60 this year and as part of our celebrations our staff are taking on the challenge of entering a Team for the Cardiff Half Marathon Business Challenge

We're doing this for many reasons. First to raise money for our adopted charities Motor Neurone Disease Association (MND Association), Cerebral Palsy Cymru, Parkinson’s UK Cymru and Cymru Versus Arthritis.

Second to get the competitive juices flowing. We've entered a team of 27 runners of all abilities. The average times of the fastest 5 of the team will compete in the Business Challenge race against other organisations and companies. We have our work cut out. We'll need an average time of 1 hr 30 minutes to challenge for the title. The team are deep into their programs for the October race.

Thirdly. To promote the benefits healthy living and improving fitness within the organisation. Many coming back to running after many years off in order to prepare for the race.

Thank you for supporting our organisation as we raise vital funds for our adopted charities during our 60th anniversary year.
