How you can help!!
Cal2 Support and Social Enterprise Search are raising money for the Huntington's Disease Association, not only to bring awareness to their cause, but to show how the Ritchie Family have inspired us...
Over the next month, starting on Huntington's Awareness week, the 14th June, we are raising money as a team by completing a sponsored beach walk on the 18th July, as well as 2 members of the team cycling to work ( a combined 70 miles!!!)
Please help to support us!!
