Great Central Plastics is very pleased to announce that Steve, their Business Development Manager, will be running the London Marathon in April, 2015.
He is running the marathon with his partner Karen, for the charity ‘Headway’, which is very close to both their hearts. The charity is dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by brain injury and supporting their families.
Some 11 years ago Karen´s brother, Ian, was involved in a terrible car accident that changed his life and his family´s lives forever. The accident left Ian with severe head injuries that resulted in him needing constant care. For 11 years Ian´s parents dedicated their lives to caring for him and giving him the love he needed. A task that was made slightly easier by the incredible, tireless work of Headway. Tragically in June this year Ian´s brave and courageous fight for life ended and with it his suffering.
Steven and Karen are running the marathon as a tribute to Ian´s life and to give back to an incredible charity that helped Ian and his family immensely over the years.
Support Steve and this great charity by donating on his just giving page. Any amount would be hugely appreciated and no doubt will be put to very good use. Currently he has raised just over £450, still a long way off the £5000 target, but we are sure he will make it with your help!
