Various members of our team are coming together to raise money for our 2023 charity partner, National Literacy Trust, by competing in a fun run this month, dressed up as the popular character, Where’s Wally?
National Literacy Trust has held a Where’s Wally Fun Run in London parks since 2013, but now participants can take part from any location on any day at any time in the last two weeks of March. The money raised from the activity will help the charity continue its work with disadvantaged children and families across the UK.
Our Where’s Wally runners will be in Linlithgow and Southampton on 22 March and Gloucester and Brierley Hill on 27 March.

National Literacy Trust is an independent charity dedicated to giving disadvantaged children the literacy skills they need to succeed and raising literacy levels across the UK. The charity works to improve the reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in the UK’s most disadvantaged communities, where one in three people have low levels of literacy. Its research shows that during the initial school closures in 2020, 3 in 5 children and young people said that reading made them feel better; 3 in 10 said that reading helped them when they feel sad because they cannot see their family and friends. Because low literacy is intergenerational, the charity focuses its work on families, young people and children.
