Telford law firm to sponsor charity’s 30th Pontesbury Potter fundraiser
Telford law firm mfg Solicitors has been confirmed as a main sponsor for this year’s Severn Hospice Pontesbury Potter charity walk.
The 13-mile walk, which marks the event’s 30th anniversary, will take place on Saturday 21st March. It will see hundreds of people walking the Shropshire countryside and raising vital funds for the hospice, which provides free specialist care and support to thousands of families across Shropshire and Mid Wales every year.
The firm’s Telford CSR Committee, comprising of Danielle Fenn, Katie Hardwick and Jack Robinson, has chosen Severn Hospice as the office’s charity for this financial year and has led a series of fundraising initiatives throughout the year.
Solicitors and support staff from across the firm will also be taking part in the event, hoping to raise £1,000 for the charity.
Danielle Fenn from mfg Solicitors said: “Severn Hospice has been our chosen charity for this financial year, so to both sponsor and join in with the hundreds of other people in celebrating the 30th anniversary is a moment we’re extremely proud of.
“We have over a dozen staff from the firm participating and we’re really looking forward to taking in the amazing views Shropshire has to offer. If we are lucky, we might even stop for a picnic along the way. The work the team at Severn Hospice do every day is truly inspirational, so it means a great deal for us to be playing our part and helping to make a difference.”
Holly Gibbons from Severn Hospice added: “The Pontesbury Potter is always a highlight in the Shropshire calendar and celebrating our 30th birthday makes it even more special, not only for us, but for everyone who has supported us over the last three decades.
“This significant milestone simply wouldn’t be possible without the generosity and loyalty of our local community and businesses like mfg Solicitors. We are hugely grateful to mfg’s CSR committee and everyone at the firm for their support and all their fantastic fundraising efforts throughout the past year. Having them on board as a main sponsor is the icing on the cake and we’re looking forward to what promises to be a memorable event.
“All our services at Severn Hospice are provided free of charge, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has taken part in the Potter since 1996. Their support raises vital funds, helping us deliver specialist, compassionate care to families across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and Mid Wales to their loved ones living with incurable illnesses.”
