We’re thrilled to be launching our second annual Sponsored Walk event to raise funds for Olive Academies Foundation.
The event will take place on Saturday July 6 at Thorndon Country Park, Brentwood, Essex and is open to staff, pupils, family, and friends alike with the aim of raising as much money as possible for OA Foundation whilst encouraging staff and students to spend time outdoors for a great cause.
We’re hoping to raise an amazing £5,000 for the foundation to fund enrichment projects for our students such as this year’s skiing trip and other projects across the academies.
If you’d like to take part, all you need to do is visit our registration page (being hosted externally by Challenge Central).
Whilst there’s no pressure to raise huge sums of money, we’d really like it if everyone could try and achieve £50 of sponsorship to take part (but we understand if you can’t, so don’t let that deter you from participating).
So, whether you’re thinking of coming along with some work colleagues, want to drag your family out for some fresh air or you’re a pupil or parent that wants to take part, make sure you sign up and help us take some steps for change.
Whilst the walk is being held in Essex this year, the funds go towards helping projects across the trust, and we’re planning to repeat this event again next year close to another OA location.
Whether you want to get together with colleagues, bring along your family or just attend alone, you’ll be more than welcome!
