🏃‍♂️ Roland is taking on the Great North Run!

On 13 September, Chalkwell MD Roland Eglinton will take on the Great North Run in memory of two much-loved colleagues, Chris Ash and Elaine Little, who sadly passed away from cancer in the last few months.

Roland is raising money for Cancer Research UK, supporting vital research to help find new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer.

This is a very personal challenge for Roland, and we’d love your support. ❤️

If you can spare a donation, no matter how large or small, it would mean a lot.
