Metal Technology teams complete Belfast City Marathon 2026 and present £20,041 cheque to Brainwaves NI
On Sunday 3rd May, Metal Technology teams proudly took part in the Belfast City Marathon 2026, in memory of their dear friend and colleague, Timmy Cummins, who died from a brain tumour in 2023. This year’s event was dedicated to raising funds for Brainwaves NI, the charity that provided vital support to Timmy and his family during his illness.
The day was filled with smiles, laughter, and shared memories as the Metal Technology team honoured Timmy’s incredible 20+ years with them – a period marked by his outstanding technical expertise, dedication to customers, and the many friendships he built across the industry.
The teams took on the challenge in relay format, with many stepping into long-distance running for the first time. It has been fantastic that so many have continued their running journey beyond the event, a testament to the team spirit and commitment shown throughout.
With the support of customers, suppliers, family and friends, Metal Technology is proud to have raised an incredible £20,041, more than doubling their original target of £10,000! Brainwaves NI thanks everyone who contributed and provided support along the way.
Following the event, Brainwaves NI was delighted to formally receive the cheque. This achievement would not have been possible without the incredible support received in Timmy’s memory, something that is deeply appreciated by both Metal Technology and the Cummins families.
A huge well done to all involved. The day was rounded off with some well-earned food and refreshments as the team reflected on a brilliant achievement and a fitting tribute to Timmy.
