A FAMILY team of runners from Redditch has smashed its fundraising target after successfully completing the Warwick Half Marathon in support of Molly Ollys raising £1,620.
Running their socks off were Oakland International co-founder Dean Attwell, son and Molly Ollys’ ambassador Samuel and Oakland finance manager and cousin Keith Davies.
Molly Ollys supports children with life-threatening illnesses and their families, helping with their emotional wellbeing.
They grant wishes by providing gifts to individual children, donating their therapeutic toy ‘Olly The Brave’ and his storybooks, supporting bespoke projects such as funding a Paediatric Palliative Care Consultant and furnishing the Magnolia House palliative care facility at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, among other projects.
Samuel said: “Thank you to everyone for supporting us and we are absolutely thrilled to have raised £1,620 for Molly Ollys.
“It is such a wonderful charity that makes a huge difference to many young people and children living with life-threatening illnesses.
“Our sincere thanks and gratitude to everyone for supporting us.”
