RASING MONEY FOR MACMILLAN
In 2023 we raised an exceptional £89,000 for Macmillan – a 50% increase in what we raised in 2022 and almost £20,000 over target!
Our B&B fundraising target for 2024 is £100,000 so please do keep sharing ideas with your Macmillan representative and keep donating and supporting those people who continue to put their personal time into helping this great cause. Please note - if you would like your fundraising efforts to be linked to the B&B Macmillan fundraising total you must create your JustGiving page via this link - https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/ brewingbrnads2024
Hear from some of our B&B team members who are set to take on the London Marathon all in the name of Macmillan and please sponsor them if you can...
Matt Steward, Head of People
‘I’ve never entered a race before so I thought the London Marathon would be a good place to start! Anyone that knows me will know this is a huge challenge for me to complete. Any donation to my sponsorship is gratefully received and will hopefully give me the much-needed encouragement through my training and the big day itself.’
Neil Sumner, Warehouse Operative, Eastwood Distribution Centre
‘I’ve been a keen runner for many years and have always had the ambition to run the London Marathon. It’s a privilege to make this a reality by supporting a great charity like Macmillan and what better way to do this than through Greene King. Training is going well and I’m really looking forward to the big day.’
Adam Rist, Dray Operative, Bury Distribution Centre
I wanted to raise funds for MacMillan Greene King as it’s such a worthwhile cause. Sadly, I lost my dad in February, so this is a big reason for me wanting to take part in the marathon. One of the last things I talked to Dad about was discussing were he would stand when he came to see me in April, Tower Bridge.
I'm very humbled by all the support with fund raising over the last few weeks, it's such a lift. I get a lot from my running and it's nice to give something back.
