STAFF at a consultancy firm are taking part in a virtual fundraiser for a children’s charity.

Digicomm 360 will be doing the 5k elf dash for Lagan’s Foundation, a charity caring for children with serious heart conditions.

Managing director Mark Pollitt has been a keen supporter of the charity after hearing how baby Lagan died in 2011.

He said: “We have always ensured that we support national charities, but doing our bit for local charities is even more important.

“We are aware that fundraising events have had to be cancelled and so have decided to do that little bit extra this year for Lagan’s.”

Mark will also be taking on a skydive for the charity in the spring to continue his support.

If you would like to donate, or take part in the festive run, email charlotte@lagans.org.uk – all runners will get a free Lagan’s elf hat for taking part.
