Fulda Tyres Team Joins the Race

A group of associates from Fulda Tyres in Birmingham have participated in the Great Midlands Fun Run, raising money for the Acorn Children’s Hospice in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham in the process.The 8.5 mile run started in Sutton Park on 5 June and ended in Sutton town centre in front of a crowd of spectators. Fulda Tyres did its bit with six employees lacing up their trainers and battling their way through the challenging course.

Over 3650 people registered for the 3rd Great Midlands Fun Run, an increase of 11 per cent on 2004 with the aim to provide financial support to charities and voluntary organisations across the Midlands.

Fulda’s nominated charity, the Acorn Children’s Hospice cares for life-limited children and their families from across the West Midlands region. Since 1988 1100 families have been helped by Acorns.

“It was tough but we encouraged each other around the run and ended up all getting round in a good time. It was a real team challenge but at the same time we were raising money for a very worthy cause,” said Marcus White, brand manager Fulda Tyres.
