Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page!
As a team during the month of August, we will be walking/running 1,000 miles to raise money for Age Connects Cardiff and the Vale!
We are doing this challenge to get the team more active as we work in an office and are sat down most of the day!
Over the month we will be documenting our miles on Social Media so make sure to follow us to keep up to date - @marketingpurks
A little about Age Connects:
Age Connects Cardiff and the Vale have always supported older members of our local communities who have little or no family support. As the Coronavirus crisis continues to hit, and with friends and family members still self-isolating, the number of people requiring our support has risen immensely and additional requests for assistance continue to be received daily. On the ground, local charities offering vital services with small infrastructures such as ours are in desperate need of support to keep going and meet demand. The loss of our planned fundraising activity income during this time will be in the thousands and as many of our housebound clients do not have cash at home as we are having to carry out the shop and then take online payments later over the telephone, and as a local charity with limited funds this is taking its toll on our resources. We are asking - please consider helping our local community, our local charity, and those most vulnerable at this time of need.
