Support Pendeford’s marathon man

Pendeford Housewares’ director Ralph Humphries is in training to run the London Marathon (26.2miles or 42.2km) this April.

“After unexpectedly getting a place in the 2019 London Marathon I thought why not try to raise money for a charity,” said Ralph. “After been 10 years in remission my charity has got to be Bloodwise (formerly Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research).”

He continued: ‘Without their research and the fantastic doctors and nurses at hospital around the UK a lot of people might not be here today.”

Ralph thanks all the members of the housewares industry who have already sponsored his Marathon challenge. To support Ralph’s efforts go to https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ralphhumphries8
