Dig out your walking boots on Sunday 14th September and join the annual sponsored ‘Walk on the Wildside’ event. Come along and enjoy the walk, passing through the beautiful Bradgate Park and enchanting Swithland Wood.
On 2nd July, Vernon Ward, Jon Ruskin and Chris Lester set off on a 3 day, 294 mile, London to Paris Bike Ride and raised more than £6,000 for LOROS.
Ben, who is a technician apprentice at the Leicester branch of Alltruck, won employee of the month and chose to donate the £240 award to LOROS
Congratulations to the Coleorton Support Group, who have been tirelessly fundraising for over 25 years and have raised over £150,000 for LOROS
The challenge is simple enough, each team were given £50 and tasked with ‘’growing’’ the money in any way they could over a 3 month period. 20 teams proved successful and together raised the incredible sum of £6000, which is equivalent to the cost of a LOROS Community Nurse Specialist being able to visit 65 terminally ill patients in their homes in Leicester, Leicestershire or Rutland.
LOROS representatives were busy this week visiting the winners of the LOROS Accumulator Challenge 2014. Our first meeting was with The Plant Man who were the winners of the ‘Most Innovative Idea and today we visited the British Gas Business Complains Team who won the award for ‘Most Money Raised’.
As part of the PHSE and Citizenship Course Year 9 Pupils at Leysland High School in Countesthorpe chose LOROS as their chosen charity for their recent Charities Afternoon.
