Moving with Meaning

Moving with Meaning

This October, Ortho Consulting Group, Ortho Surgical Skills Centre, Osteotec, and Medddbase UK will be taking on our fundraising challenge, Moving with Meaning. Taking place over two weekends, our goal is to collectively travel 1,000 kilometres in support of Life+Limb.

The Challenges

Stage 1: The Marathon | October 18
42 km across the Berkshire Downs and The Ridgeway, walking the full marathon distance. This challenge will be taken on by a group of 15 team members.

Stage 2: Waterways | October 25
8 km along the Kennet & Avon Canal, walking the distance together as a team.

In addition to these events, our teams across the UK and international markets will be logging their distances virtually by walking, running, or cycling. We would also like to welcome anyone who would like to join us virtually and help contribute towards our target of 1,000 kilometres. To take part, simply send your distance to mkt@orthocg.com or share it with us via direct message on our social media channels.

Traumatic Injury remains one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, with more than five million deaths each year, exceeding the combined toll of many major infectious diseases. Globally however, training in primary trauma care is woefully underfunded. Since its founding in 1996, Life+Limb has trained nearly one million healthcare professionals across 92 countries, delivering approximately 160 training courses annually to frontline Healthcare professional predominantly working in low-resource and low-income environments. Every £50 raised can support the training of one frontline health worker. Reaching our £3,000 target could therefore support the training of 60 health workers, helping equip clinicians with the skills they need to provide essential trauma and emergency care.

Please support us with a donation, however big or small. Thank you for helping us reach our target and supporting this important cause.
