THE CHILDREN'S TRUST

Every year 40,000 children in the UK are left with a brain injury as a result of an accident or illness and it can be devastating – they may no longer be able to walk, talk, stand, sit, or feed themselves – sometimes all of these abilities.

At The Children’s Trust, we aim to help rebuild as many of their skills as possible, as well as their self-esteem. A child’s confidence is central to that relearning.

We help children do this through play, exploration, laughter and having fun; things that are often absent when a child has limited mobility or has had a challenging time. By combining music, singing, arts and crafts, day trips and other activities, with therapy, healthcare and education, children do not focus on what they cannot do, they just do it and have fun.

"The PGA Networking was my first Property Sports Network event, and certainly won't be my last! I had heard great things from my colleagues about the network, and this event in particular. The event was well organised with a mix of industry professionals from across the sector. I'd have no hesitation to attend or recommend future events!".

"I recently attended a yoga event. Not only was it a great chance to keep fit and network, we also had a guided tour of the incredible venue. The class was suitable for all levels, so there was no need to be nervous about ability. I look forward to attending the next event, I’m hoping to be able to make it to the self-defence class next time."

Chris Kirkland | City of Wolverhampton Council Wolverhampton

"I've been taking part in the networking runs for many years, starting at MIPIM. The events have continued to grow year on year and this year at UKREiiF were really well attended. Always well organised, enjoyable and a great way of meeting new people, networking and starting the day in the best way possible."

"I took part in the online pilates, HIIT and yoga morning sessions during lock-down. The instructors were amazing, motivating us to push ourselves and always remaining positive. It’s also given me a new love of pilates – thank you!"

Sam Wilson | Cascade Communications London

"I've taken part in several events organised by Property Sports Network,  including runs at MIPIM I've found them to be an accessible and fun way of making new contacts in the industry. Always good to meet people with similar interests and enjoy a well-deserved drink afterwards, especially after the night run in Richmond!"

Emily Gabb | NLA London

"MIPIM has the reputation of being networking fuelled by glasses of rosè outside Cafe Roma and the Property Sports Network offer a great way to challenge that perception with a healthy start to the day. The runs provide a beautiful view of Cannes before all the hussle and bustle of the day starts and are an excellent way to meet new people in a relaxed, informal way, while getting some exercise in. I attended 3/4 of the runs this year and find them to be a great way to prioritise your mental and physical health for the day ahead at what can be a very intense event. I would reccommend these events to anyone attending MIPIM, particularly for first timers or those who are looking to clock up a few miles while still getting in some networking."

"Great event. Well run and well attended."

Anh Nguyen | Aggregate Industries London

"I attended my first event (running) and found the experience highly enjoyable to meet friendly and likeminded people from the industry. Well organised and definitely a network I would recommend others join. I will definitely be back!"

Mandisa Khabo | Greystar London

"Well organised event, I was a bit worried what the running pace would be. However it was steady and no one was left behind. The steady pace made the conversation easier. Great to meet companies from all areas of the property sector and it turned out our business were already dealing them."

Philip Waind | Waind Gohil + Potter Architects London

"We had a great time hosting two events. It gave us a great opportunity to showcase our work in a fun setting whilst connecting with lots of likeminded people. We are looking forward to hosting the Property Sports Network again soon."
