 Celgene has performed amazingly at the Berlin Marathon – with an entire team of runners – and managed to raise a very impressive amount of funds – for both Myeloma UK and MDS UK – details and photos coming soon.  Thank you all who took part – and helped.

The Celgene staff who ran the Berlin marathon raised an amazing £5,000 for MDS UK – which the Celgene company then matched – donating a further £5,000.  Photo of our treasurer – Sharon Berger – and fundraiser – Jan Buchanan – gratefully accepting the £10,000 cheque handed over by Celgene UK manager Samantha Pearce.

Thank you so much to all the staff that ran – and all the supporters and donors.

And here is the list of the formidable runners – and fundraisers: Tom Mills, Sam Pearce, Louise Mercer, Sarah Henderson, Caroline Daintree, Gemma Brookes, Kevin Loth, Liam Quinn, Tracey Davidson, Tim Paget, Rachael Foggo, Ian Russell, Gavin Collins, Martin Ellis, Judy Willits – big thank you to each one of you!!
