As you may or may not know, some of the guys and girls at Saffron Interactive are running a half marathon this weekend. I know that you probably all get requests for sponsorship every other day and we all have to choose the causes that are closest to our hearts, but I wanted to take a moment to raise awareness of what Team Saffron is doing and why.

We’re raising money for a fantastic cause, the NSPCC, whose purpose is to end cruelty to children and achieve a society where children are loved, valued and able to fulfil their potential. Every day, thousands of children and adults call ChildLine and the NSPCC, and every pound really does make a difference.

The reason Team Saffron is running for the NSPCC is because it was the chosen charity of our former CEO, Hanif Sazen. We have been overwhelmed by the support received so far, resulting in us exceeding our initial £500 target within the first month. With a week left until the big day, we’d love to hit a new target of £1,000 so any donation, however small, will be hugely appreciated.

Even if you can’t support us financially, you can follow the team’s progress and see how they do on our marathon blog. Thanks for your support!
