A dedicated team of runners from MSC Industrial Supply Co. is set to take on the London Landmarks Half Marathon on April 6 to raise vital funds for the mental health charity Kaleidoscope Plus Group (KPG).
Led by KPG Board Member Douglas Brown, the team is committed to supporting the charity’s mission to provide essential mental health services and initiatives. By participating in this prestigious event, they aim to raise awareness and crucial funding to help individuals struggling with mental health challenges.
The London Landmarks Half Marathon is a unique, closed-road event that takes participants past some of the capital’s most iconic sights. With thousands of runners expected to take part, the MSC team is determined to make an impact both on the course and in their fundraising efforts.
Speaking about the challenge, Douglas Brown said: “We are incredibly proud to be running in support of Kaleidoscope Plus Group. Mental health affects so many people, and the work KPG does is truly life-changing. We hope to not only raise funds but also spark important conversations about mental wellbeing.”
The team, which is a mix of seasoned runners and first-timers is encouraging supporters to contribute to their fundraising campaign to help spur them on during the race. Donations will go directly to Kaleidoscope Plus Group, helping to fund mental health services, support groups and community outreach programmes.
