Get behind our IT techie, Kev!
Our IT techie, Kev, is running 5 half marathons in October. Not only will he be running, but juggling at the same time! 8 years ago, Kev had a horrific accident, suffering a traumatic head injury which kept him in an induced coma for weeks to help his brain reduce the swelling. Luckily, Kev survived and with the help of family, friends and Headway, a charity devoted to those who have suffered brain trauma, Kev is able to live a normal life. Kev has always juggled and since his accident, has taken up jogging too, so he thought to combine the two!! In 2014, he ran the Brighton Marathon and has since completed many more full and half marathons, all to help raise awareness and money for Headway. Please sponsor Kev here and keep a track of his tremendous efforts on his Twitter and Facebook pages.
