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.

"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!"

"I’ve attended a number of the Property Sports Network events including running, yoga and cycling. They are fun and great for all levels and I’ve made some excellent business contacts and great friends."

Martyn Janzemin | London Building Control London

"We feel privileged to have had the opportunity to support the MIPIM daily runs in 2019. This was our first event with the Property Sports Network. It was a great success.  It was well organised, well attended, raised money for LandAid and exceeded our expectations.

The dedication of the team to continuously offer regular and new events to bring people together in the name of sport, fitness, charity and networking is simply refreshing.

We will be supporting future events where possible."

Ian Hawes | CampbellReith London

"A friendly, welcoming group of runners - the route was great and the pace suitable for all abilities with plenty of stops for regrouping. Lots of smiling faces and great to finish off with a drink and pizza from Markides Associates!"

Anna Silkstone | Colliers London

"A brilliant way to network at MIPIM, whilst getting some exercise and raising money for charity. I met like-minded real estate professionals who enjoy running - what more could you ask for before 8am! Thank you! “

"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."

Isabelle Hosford | Pocket Living London

"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."

Simon England | Harrison Drury Solicitors Preston

"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!"

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."
