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.

"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!"

"We hosted a cycling event with PSN and it was excellent.  Clear and consistent communications with the team, a lovely group of attendees with common interests, and of course a great networking opportunity for all."

Tracey Frost | HLW London

"We were happy to host a Self Defence event in our flexible office space.  The evening was energetic, fun and useful, where we learnt some great moves from the professional and talented Taekwondo instructors.  The event was a perfect size in terms of being intimate and friendly, with a great crowd of various industry faces.  The sporting activity gave everyone the chance to earn the optional post exercise drinks that followed, it was a well organised evening and everyone left the office feeling ready to face any potential attackers should they need to!"

"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."

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."

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! “

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."

Peter Fenwick | Spatial Dimenions London

"Recently attended the PGA golf at Wentworth with Property Sports Network. I took a colleague and two clients, we all had a brilliant time. Spent the day chatting in a really casual environment, based around high quality sport in a superb setting. I find this really helps build strong connections with our clients. I'd definitely recommend PSN to anyone who loves sport and is in the property industry."

Vickie Kent | BDP London

"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!"

"The inaugural Groundbreakers motorcycle ride was excellent.  They were an interesting crowd, the day was well organised and you felt included from the moment you arrived.   It was the perfect mixture of fun and useful contacts."
