Supporters Jen Barrow and Liz Broomfield braved the heat on Sunday to take part in the Great Midlands Fun Run for LUCIA. Over 6000 runners descended upon Sutton in Birmingham on what was one of the hottest days of the year. Despite the heat, Jen and Liz managed to complete the 8.5 mile course within 1 hour 45 minutes, motivated by the generous sponsorship from their family and friends. As well as boosting awareness of the charity they have raised over £250 which will be used to support LUCIA's projects in Ethiopia.

If you would like to congratulate Jen and Liz on their success, their JustGiving page is still open for donations!
