Fundraisers
Helen Johnson is the wife of one of our employees, Ben Johnson who is a deputy supervisor with Clarke Chapman Facilities Management Ltd on the RDF contract (Network Rail).
Helen raised £310 running the Royal Parks half marathon on 14th October 2018 for the Kent Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre. The Company have matched this, making the total amount raised to £620.
Over the last year I have increased my running distance and looked for a new challenge. To run for a charity quite close to home seemed very fitting. My step nan suffered for many years from MS… I remember from a young age visiting the MS centre and waiting patiently whilst she went into a huge submarine (oxygen tank)
