Over the past 2 months there has been a joint effort between HSBC and KPMG to produce a team of runners capable of winning the Fleet Half Marathon.

Through injuries, illness, holidays, bad and worse weather these committed individuals have trained with the goal of becoming elite athletes.

While we may have fallen short of the "elite" status we have certainly advanced immensly and will almost certainly make it round before the roads re-open.

We are jointly raising money for Chestnut Tree House which is the only children's hospice in Sussex and cares for children and young adults from 0-19 years of age with progressive life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses from all over the county.

This is a small charity and will benefit immensly from any donations that are made.
