BIG-hearted employees from Prime Global in Brook Street, Knutsford, smashed their £500 charity target by raising £719 for two charities by taking part in the Great Manchester Run 10k on Sunday.

The runners first choice charity was the Christie, the largest single site cancer centre in Europe.

The Manchester-based hospital treats more than 44,000 patients a year, and employs the leading experts in cancer care, research and education.

The firm also chose to mark the end of Mental Health Awareness week by nominating their second charity as MIND.

The charity provides advice and support, while campaigning to improve mental health services and ensure sufferers are treated with respect and understanding.
