Well this has got to be the soggiest sponsorship event we've done so far for staff members and young parents raising funds. Who will help get them over the line?

Well done to everyone who took part in our Young Parents' Accommodation sponsored pram push walk today. Despite the weather, everyone was still smiling!
The team would be hugely grateful if you're able to sponsor them. They're just £1 off from £400 raised! justgiving.com/page/caritas-m…

It is absolutely throwing it down, but we have our raincoats and our wellies at the ready. ☔️ Will post some soggy photos soon...! Will you sponsor the team for puddle splashing?

Good luck to the young families and babies from our Young Parents' Accommodation who are braving the rain and taking on their sponsored pram push walk today.

Please could you spare a pound or two to sponsor them and virtually cheer them on in this rain?
