A special thanks to Maisie, one of our incredible volunteers, who has already been hard at work getting everything ready for the big day. We’re also so grateful to all our marshals (including Maisie!) who will be out supporting runners and walkers on the day.

💙 Thank you to everyone who made this incredible night possible! 💙

We’re so grateful to see an amazing £3,000 raised at the recent IKM Testing UK charity casino night in support of All Life Chances and Brave journeys

Events like this are about so much more than fundraising, they bring people together, build connections, and show the power of community when we all get behind a shared cause. From casino tables to raffles, it was a fantastic evening filled with generosity and great spirit!

A huge thank you to everyone at IKM Testing UK and all who attended and donated. Your support helps us continue creating opportunities for children, young people and families across our communities.
