Team fundraiser • 1 members • St. James's Place Charitable Foundation
Story
WORK WEEK is a groundbreaking endurance adventure event starting on 7th April 2025. I and a group of friends are embarking on a challenge to complete 7 marathons, in 7 disciplines, over 7 days, traversing the rugged American Southwest.
Through the St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation we are embarking on this major challenge to support raising awareness and funds for some amazing causes close to our hearts, as well as supporting some of the communities we will train and compete in.
WORK WEEK is dedicating each daily marathon to a different charity.
The total funds raised will be distributed to Macmillan, Best Friends, The Michael J Fox Foundation, The Navajo Water Project, Poppy’s Fund, MIND & First Touch which you can read more about below.
