Two big Leicestershire business have given their support to a major charity fundraiser.
Leicester wealth management firm Mattioli Woods, and brand agency Champions (海角视频) plc, which is based on the Leicestershire/Notts border, are both backing the 2021 Rothley 10k charity event.
It will raise money for LOROS whose hospice provides compassionate care and support to terminally ill adult patients, their family and carers across Leicestershire and Rutland.
The run takes place on September 14, and over the last three years has raised more than 拢300,000 local charities, including LOROS, Age 海角视频, and the Rainbows children鈥檚 hospice in Loughborough.
This year鈥檚 event is even more special as it is dedicated to Rothley 10k founder Colin Favell, who passed away in February 2020.
Mr Favell was instrumental to the run鈥檚 success over the years, and entrants will be remembering his dedication, enthusiasm and love for the event as they dust off their running shoes.
