#ND502024

Created By Saracens Bricks & Brains 50

Were back for 2024! Yeah yeah I know we alll said never again, I know we are all getting older (but obviously not wiser it seems) but these fabulous people need our help!!

The ND50 is a tough challenge setting out from Guilford, its a looped 50 km route which takes in some of the best of the Surrey hills, the North Downs Way, and the surrounding countryside. A route with real variety and some wonderful scenery & fabulous views out to the south. but its still 50K in one go!

More on our chosen charities....

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer, yet historically just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease. Brain Tumour Research is determined to change this! We are the only national charity in the UK focused on finding a cure for all types of brain tumours through campaigning to increase the national investment in brain tumour research to £35 million per year, while fundraising to create a network of seven sustainable Brain Tumour Research Centres of Excellence across the UK. Their mantra is ‘Together we will find a cure’

The Saracens Foundation is the charitable arm of Saracens Rugby Club. Working across Hertfordshire and North London, our vision is to inspire our community through the values of sport, physical activity, and social opportunities as a catalyst for positive change, enabling the fulfilment of potential. With projects ranging from disability, education, and employability, reducing reoffending and improving lives, the foundation has invested over £10m over the past 20 years, working on 28 life changing projects. Spending over 208,000 hours helping over 1m people in the community. Projects like this have saved local government more than £40m with their work and the services they provide.

Founded in 2009, Brick by Brick works with communities in Malawi to provide educational facilities for villages in desperate need of school buildings. Brick by brick is a highly efficient charity with no overheads, entrusting control of its projects to village principles. Once the schools are operational, they continue to support with additional building projects, toilet facilities, wells, and accommodation for teachers. They also help to provide books, stationery, uniforms, and desks. Brick by Brick was originally founded by David Aarons and Sarah Vallance-Goode and the funding to date has been provided by them.
