Visual Print and Design takes on fundraising challenge for LIVES
At Visual Print and Design, we are proud to support a number of local and national charities and the brilliant work that they do.
We believe that it is our role as a business to offer up our time and resources when we can to help the community, especially as the last few months have hit charities badly.
That’s why, as a team, we decided to EACH run, walk or cycle 50 miles in October (yep, you’ve read that correctly!) to help raise some vital funds for LIVES and to mark 50 years of this wonderful, life-saving charity.
Team Members
- Graham Hunstone
- Scott Jones
- Charlie Hartley
- Sarah Lawrence
- Rachael Hunt
There will be tears, there will be pleas of ‘can’t I have a day off today?’ and we’ll probably threaten to quit at least 2-3 times a day (well except for Sarah, she runs for fun!) but if we can hit our target of £500, it will all be worth it.
Please support us if you can – we promise to keep you regularly updated as reach our goal (make sure you follow on Facebook and LinkedIn) but promise not to send you photos of Graham wearing bike shorts…

About LIVES
LIVES are a Lincolnshire based emergency first response charity who attend 999 medical emergencies around the county. Their volunteer army of Community First Responders and Medics are based within local Lincolnshire communities, meaning that they are able to get to the scene of a 999 medical emergency in minutes, arriving before the ambulance 81% of the time.
As a charity, they need essential funding to keep their volunteers on the road and ensure that they have the training and equipment to respond. LIVES have attended over 14,000 incidents in the last year, and need over £1.4million a year to ensure that their service can continue running.
