Somer staff run the mile for Sport Relief
18th March 2008
Somer Housing Group staff have done their bit to support this
year’s Sport Relief day. More than 40 members of staff turned out
at Bath City Football Club’s ground at Twerton Park to run or walk
a mile for the charity.
The event marked the end of a day of fundraising efforts, with
staff dressing down for the day, a sports quiz, a raffle with
sporting prizes and lunchtime competitions, games and food.
Together they raised
£761!
The group of housing associations includes Somer Community
Housing Trust in Bath, Redland Housing Association based in
Bristol, Bath Self Help Housing Association and Lantern Homes.
Howard Cunningham-Smith, Fundraising Manager at Somer Housing
Group, said:
‘We are really pleased that so many staff
have got behind Sport Relief. We are also extremely grateful to
Paul Williams, the Managing Director of Bath City Football Club,
for generously allowing us to use their ground.’
