Let’s hear it for the ‘Listers Ladies’
Five of the Listers’ girls (pictured) completed the 5km race held on Tuesday 10th June around the Trentham estate in Stoke-on-Trent. Together they raised over £1000 for cancer research!
In total over 5,000 women ran the Trentham Race for Life making for a very lively and pink atmosphere! It’s reported that the total amount raised from Tuesday’s event was approximately £375,000 which beats the fundraising target by a long way!
Also well done to the girls for beating a time target set by their Operations Director, Andrew Gray. For completing the race in record time, Andrew kindly increased his donation which inspired a few others to do the same.
On behalf of the lovely ladies, Linda Kelsall, the radiant receptionist at Listers commented, ‘We’d all like to say a big thanks to everyone that sponsored us for their kind donations! I ran the Race for Life in memory of my dad who died of cancer back in 1994 and greatly appreciate everyone’s support! The night was a huge success and we hope we did everybody proud!’
