Solicitors announce sponsorship of Royal Sutton Fun Run

West Midlands law firm George Green LLP Solicitors - who opened their third regional office in Sutton Coldfield last summer - have partnered with the Royal Sutton Fun Run as a supporting sponsor.

Registration for this year’s Fun Run has now closed, with the event scheduled for Sunday, 2 June at the end of spring half term.

Gemma Fenton, Family Law partner at George Green LLP Solicitors, said: “As one of the Midlands’ leading law firms, serving both businesses and individuals, we took the decision in the summer of 2023 to open our first office outside the Black Country.

"Our Royal Sutton Coldfield office, located in Emmanuel Court, Reddicroft, in the heart of the town centre, is our first venture away from Cradley Heath and Wolverhampton.

“We’ve been very proactive supporting community initiatives and organisations within the Black Country where we’ve been based since 1897. The Royal Sutton Fun Run is the largest annual fundraising event within the town, so it was a natural choice to support the event to show our commitment to the town and encourage staff to participate and raise money for our chosen charity Mary Steven’s Hospice.”

Tracey Spare, Fun Run Event Director, said: “We’re delighted to welcome George Green LLP Solicitors as a supporting sponsor for 2024. It’s rewarding to see new businesses within the town wanting to support the Fun Run both as a commercial sponsor and encouraging staff to participate and raise money for charity.

“We hope this is the start or a long-term relationship with George Green LLP Solicitors and wish them every success with their new office in the town.

“Over the past 42 years, the Royal Sutton Fun Run has distributed over £5.1 million to charities with thousands of participants taking part each year. Without commercial support from businesses such as George Green LLP Solicitors, this wouldn’t be possible, so thank you.”
