Christian Spragg with his daughter Illaria and Joe Mawdsley founder of Rainbow House
UK - A team from Saville Audio Visual branches across the UK, supported by a host of AV manufactures has raised £10,000 for children's charity Rainbow House.

The team took part in the BUPA Great Manchester 10k Run to raise cash for The Legacy Rainbow House which specialises in providing services for children with brain injuries, disabilities and life limiting conditions such as cerebral palsy.

The Saville effort was coordinated by group installation manager Colin Etchells and supported by manufacturers and suppliers including Anders & Kern, AMX, Audio Visual Material, CIE, POLARaudio and Sennheiser, who all took part in the run.

The Rainbow House Charity is close to the hearts of all the Saville employees. Christian Spragg gave up his job at Saville AV to look after his daughter when he tragically lost his wife hours after daughter Illaria was born. Illaria was later diagnosed with cerebral palsy and attends Rainbow House, where she receives special conductive education and physiotherapy.

POLARaudio's Simon Druce achieved a very respectable time of 65 minutes and came in at 19,511th out of 36,000 runners.
