The Parenta team swapped the office for the sports field last Friday in aid of raising money for Marie Curie Cancer.
Parenta directors, Nick Williams and Allan Presland, tackle the mammoth task of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro this September as they aim to raise £10,000 for Marie Cure Cancer.
To support their intensive training schedule, the Parenta team organised a ‘Sports Day’ event to raise further donations for the cause.
Fun games included ‘Wheelbarrow’, ‘Caterpillar’ and ‘Bowls’ as two teams made up of Parenta Staff battled it out for bragging rights!
Nick Williams, part of the winning team commented, “It was clear that we are in peak physical condition heading into next month’s challenge (cough)! Allan and I are very excited about attempting Kilimanjaro and hope that we can continue to raise more money for the Maire Curie foundation.”
If you would like to sponsor the boys on their climb up Kilimanjaro and help reach their £10,000 target for Marie Curie Cancer Care, head over to their donations page and leave your comments and support!
From September 2010 the current free entitlement will increase from 12.5 to 15 hours per week for 38 weeks of the year, and parents will be able to use it more flexibly than at present – over at least three days a week. Since September 2009, all local authorities (LAs) have been required to make the offer available to 25 per cent of their most disadvantaged 3- and 4-year-olds.
