Chris Taylor

Sustainability lead UKI at Philips Health Systems and convenor of the AXREM Sustainability and Social Value Special Focus Group Chris Taylor will be taking part in the Richmond London Half Marathon in September to raise funds for Dementia UK, AXREM’s charity of the year.

The half marathon forms part of the wider Richmond RUNFEST weekend, which also features the Richmond Marathon and Richmond 10K.

Taylor’s participation highlights AXREM’s ongoing commitment to social value and community impact. He said: “I’m really proud to be running the Richmond Half Marathon in support of Dementia UK. Dementia affects so many families and the work of admiral nurses makes a genuine difference at some of the most challenging moments in people’s lives. As AXREM’s charity of the year, it’s a cause that means a great deal to our members and I’m honoured to play a small part in helping raise awareness and vital funds. The route is iconic, the atmosphere will be fantastic and I’m looking forward to representing both Philips and AXREM on the day.”

Dementia UK’s specialist nurses, known as admiral nurses, provide free, expert advice and compassionate support whether through the charity’s helpline, its clinics service or in communities across the country.

AXREM CEO Sally Edgington said: “Chris’s commitment to taking on the Richmond Half Marathon in support of Dementia UK reflects the very best of what AXREM stands for. His leadership in sustainability and social value already makes a significant impact across our membership and we are incredibly proud to see him extend that dedication to championing our charity of the year.

Donations can be made online via AXREM’s JustGiving page.
