Natural Paving Products is supporting the Greenfingers Charity for a second year running, raising money by entering the BUPA Manchester 10k run on May 26..
Last year Operations Director, Paul Shephard and a colleague raised a fantastic £1600.
However coming on in leaps and bounds, this year Paul is leading a nine strong team who are striving to beat last year’s donation.
“Greenfingers is really impressed to hear that nine people from Natural Paving have volunteered to take part in the Manchester 10K Run and raise funds for Greenfingers," said a spokesperson for the charity.
"We thank them all for their commitment and dedication to support our work in creating magical gardens for children’s hospices and wish them well in their run.”
With a responsible, proactive and caring attitude the team at Natural Paving are passionate about supporting the wider community and have found Greenfingers to be a highly deserving and related cause.
The charity designs and creates magical gardens for children’s hospices so the children and their families can enjoy special time, away from the bedside, to play, have fun and enjoy the therapeutic benefits of nature. The £1600 raised in 2012, contributed to Greenfingers Derian House Project, which is due to be officially opened on 10th May.
Training hard, Paul is joined by his wife and Sales Manager Julie Shephard, Managing Director Mark Wall, Sales Team members Carl Edwards and Derek Jiao, Business Development Manager Tim Rushton, Sales Manager Adrian Freebury and Northern Sales Director Gerry Childs and his daughter Emma.
To reward the team’s effort and to support Greenfingers Natural Paving kindly ask for donations, no matter how big or small, as every little helps!
