Help MDS Raise Money For Two Fantastic Causes By Entering The Great Midlands Fun Run!

Feeling fit? Fancy a challenge as well as raising money for two fantastic causes? MDS Company Director, Ralph Simmons, is putting together a 100 strong team of runners, walkers and crawlers who are prepared to take part in the Great Midlands Fun Run on Sunday 1 June 2014.  The team will raise money jointly for the Kelli Smith Appeal and the Boldmere Sports & Social Club function room fund.

Details of the Kelli Smith Appeal can be found at her website, however you may have heard of Kelli and her Dad’s plight in the national media recently.  5 year old Kelli from Sutton Coldfield was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma at just 3 months old and since then has faced an ongoing battle with cancer and some gruelling treatments.  Kelli’s hope is to raise over £500,000 which will pay for life saving treatment.  However, Kelli’s family are experiencing further sadness as her Dad, Tom Attwater, is currently dying from brain cancer.  He is desperate to see Kelli’s fundraising total reach its target before he dies.

The second of Ralph’s charities is to raise money for the completion of the brand new function room at Boldmere Sports & Social Club.  The room has been partially built but further funds are needed to get it up and running ready to take bookings.  The room is vital to the future of the club, without which the future of the numerous sporting teams can be put in jeopardy.


 If you’re interested in becoming one of Ralph’s 100, then email him at Ralph@mdsind.co.uk by 14 March 2014 to find out further details.  The team is open to all, so go on, dust off those trainers and get jogging!
