One of Sutton Coldfield’s leading home care providers, Nexus Care Services, is sponsoring this year’s Sutton Santa Run, with several members of its team set to pull on their Christmas best and take part in the festive 5K.
Organised by SE Fitness Running & Walking Club in partnership with Sutton Chamber of Commerce, the event takes place in Sutton Park on Sunday 6 December.
Every penny raised goes to two local charities, Acacia Family Support and Our Place.
Acacia Family Support helps families affected by pre- and post-natal depression and anxiety, while Our Place offers mentoring and advice to help people with their personal development.
The route starts and finishes near the Visitors Centre at Town Gate and is open to all ages and abilities, whether participants choose to run or walk.
Christmas fancy dress is strongly encouraged, with prizes for the best-dressed individual and family.
Nexus joins a number of local businesses sponsoring the event and its team will be among up to 500 participants lining up on the day.
Tinga Umera, Managing Director of Nexus Care Services, said: “Mental health touches every family in some way, and the people we care for are no different.
“Acacia Family Support and Our Place both do vital work right here on our doorstep, so when the chance came to get behind the Santa Run, we didn’t need asking twice.
“It’s also a great excuse for our team to get together outside of work. Our carers give so much to the people they support all year round, and it’s lovely to see them having fun while doing something positive for the community. I’m told the competition for best dressed is already getting quite serious.
He said that Sutton Coldfield was the home of Nexus, with so many of its staff and clients living in the local area.
“Supporting events like this, alongside our work with the Chamber, is part of how we give something back. We’d love to see as many people as possible in Sutton Park on the day, so if you haven’t signed up yet, get your ticket before they sell out,” Tinga added.
