We are delighted to announce that Enterprise Mobility has donated £2000 to Reading Family Aid. The money was received into our bank account in May 2026. Zain Akhter (Area Rental Manager for Southeast England) and Rilind Aliaj (Branch Manager) joined the Reading Family Aid Committee at our AGM on 2 July 2026 to present us with a giant cheque for the amount.

Enterprise Mobility has made a number of large donations to our charity in recent years, and we are very grateful for their ongoing support.

Our first year in the London Marathon — and George & Conal smashed it, raising almost £4,500!

Their reflections say it all: Conal felt immense pride running for Reading Family Aid, while George called it “the greatest day of my life”, carried by cheering crowds, early‑morning training memories and the thought of making Reading proud.
