Six staff members will take part in the challenge to support the children’s terminal illness respite charity, which plans to build a bespoke holiday village for children who are terminally ill and their families.

The challenge will see the Ventur staff race against other teams as they follow a route through London’s 10 royal parks, starting at Bushy Park and ending at Greenwich Park.

Emma Louise Forrestall, head of service delivery at Ventur, said: "Our team is really looking forward to Sunday – they’ve been training for weeks and are really touched by the Kids Village cause, which was founded by a friend of the business.

"The thought of children suffering is utterly heart-breaking, and the work being done by the charity is fantastic in lifting spirits for both the children and their families, at what is such an emotionally draining time."

The team hopes to raise £2,400 for the charity. To make a donation, visit  uk.virginmoneygiving.com/VenturPartners.
