ARC ANGELS ON THE RUN AGAIN FOR CANCER RESEARCH

2nd July 2010

Can you help Arc Angels reach their Race for Life fundraising target?

On 25th July, sixteen members of staff from Arc Legal Assistance will be running in the Colchester Race for Life to raise funds for Cancer Research UK.

The Race for Life is the UK’s largest female-only fundraising event and has so far raised over £327 million for the charity’s life saving work. Every pound raised helps to fund the work of over 4,500 researchers, doctors and nurses dedicated to helping more people beat cancer.

This will be Arc Angel’s third Race for Life and the team including Helen Withers, Arc Legal’s Managing Director; Rebecca Conway, our Claims Manager; Sarah Dyer, our Underwriting Manager; and Jo Watson our Marketing Manager, are hoping to raise over £2500 to add to the £4100 already raised so far.

Why the Race for Life? As Rebecca says “I think that most people have either lost a friend or relative to cancer so it’s a cause that is close to all our hearts. By taking part in the race for life, I feel that I am making a contribution to this most worthy charity.”

Helen Withers, Managing Director of Arc Legal said: "Race for Life is a great opportunity for Arc Legal to support a worthwhile cause and to have a fun day out as a team as well. A big thankyou to all our friends and business partners for their generous sponsorship."
