🏃🏼♀️In just one week, I'll be hitting the Mallorca trails for a cause close to my heart: cancer research. As I gear up for the trail marathon, I'm reminded of the importance of both planning and strategy – not just in athletics, but in life and business too. Just as every step counts in training, every detail matters in our plans and strategies. 📝 Whether it's drafting a business proposal or preparing for a marathon, having a solid plan in place can make all the difference. It's about setting clear goals, mapping out the path to reach them, and staying adaptable along the way. 🙌 With the race just around the corner, there's still time to show your support and make a difference. Let's come together and make an impact in the fight against cancer. 🎗️ If you'd like to contribute to this important cause, you can donate directly in the link. Thank you for your support – together, we can make a difference! #CancerResearch #Fundraiser #Planning #Strategy #RaceDay

Sunday was #WorldCancerDay, a day representing the impact on people globally who suffer the consequences from cancer, either directly or through those they love. More people than ever are now surviving cancer due to critical research, but this research can’t continue without our help.   After the success of 2022, I have signed on to undertake the continuous 100km solo again – this time for Cancer Research on June 8th-9th 2024. This is part of the #UltraChallenge2024 which are a recognised series of immense challenges to support charities across the country. The challenge will involve covering a distance of 100km (62 miles) over 2.5km elevation (or ~2.3 Snowdon’s) and will take somewhere between 24-30 hours, continuing the journey through the night.   Those of you who spoke or saw me after last time I did this know it was no easy feat, it took me 31 hours, along with plenty of tears and losing part of a toe! The aim this time is to be quicker, and hopefully keep more toes…   I know times are hard but any amount you can spare no matter how small or big, will be unreservedly appreciated. Alternatively, any support/advice you can offer would also be appreciated, along with any playlist and/or podcast recommendations for the journey. And a massive thankyou to those supporting from Mott MacDonald, as colleagues and friends.   If anyone you know would be interested in the challenge or donation, please feel free to forward this on.   JustGiving Link: https://lnkd.in/dTKAYvwi  All donations are considered voluntary and appreciated.

Our Implementation Manager, Solomon Fazel, will be participating in the Race for Life 10K run for Cancer Research on Sunday 28th July 2024. The Race for Life reminds us that "No matter how cancer affects us, life is worth Racing for." Organised by Cancer Research UK (CRUK), this series of fundraising events brings people together to walk, jog, or run, raising money for research and honouring those affected by cancer. At DKK Partners, one of our core brand values is to Embrace Change, seeking improvement, adapting to challenges, and supporting impactful initiatives. Solomon demonstrates this by participating in the Race for Life, combining personal growth with supporting cancer research. He shared, “I am currently in the process of bettering myself and trying to become as fit as possible. Benefiting a good cause while also bettering myself is a perfect way to do so. As someone who has had family members diagnosed and die from cancer, I am honored to participate in an event that supports the research needed to eventually find the cure for cancer.” Click here to donate: https://lnkd.in/eehfxxYh #Raceforlife #Raceforlife2024 #Raceforlife10K #CancerResearch #embracechange #dkkpartners #fx #finance #fintech #emergingmarkets #foreignexchange #exchangerates
