Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, healthcare exclusion and natural or man-made disasters.
We chose to support MSF globally for their determination in helping vulnerable people around the world regardless of race, religion, politics or gender.

Please support Charlotte, Rosanna and Sam in their 30-mile endurance challenge to raise much needed funds for Médecins Sans Frontières charity.
OK, so the Brecon Beacons are no match for Everest or Kilimanjaro, but this IS an endurance challenge that will dip into the very deepest reserves of stamina and mental strength.
The challenge will take between 10 and 18 hours to complete, with the latter hours being in complete darkness. The course incorporates sharp climbs to 886 metres, spectacular ridgeline walking, forestry plantations and bog marshes, with picturesque views stretching down to reservoirs and waterfalls, and across the National Park.
The team comprises of Broker Consultant Charlotte Stevens, Marketing Manager Rosanna Turner, and Direct Sales Administrator Sam Cooper.
They are aiming to raise money towards the purchase of an operating table worth £11,500 to allow MSF medical teams to perform fistula surgery on women in Burundi, Africa who have suffered prolonged and complicated labour.

The trio is currently busy outside of work stepping up their fitness regimes. Please encourage them to stay on course and start donating now.
