Chris reached out to his local running club to hold a Charity Beer Run - a 5k running event where every kilometre a refreshing pint is waiting! This really brought out the crowds and helped him raise a total of £2,086.

Igor and Kostadin

Friends Igor and Kostadin shared their fundraising page with friends and colleagues at work, and held a Donation Drive at work that raised £250 in one day! Igor says "Rose Road gives families strength, hope, and the kind of help you can’t put a price on. When I learned about the impact they have — how they give parents moments of relief, how they give children opportunities to thrive I knew instantly that this was a cause I wanted to stand behind".
