Mark Bell was the fastest runner among the Pratham UK team. He finished the run in an impressive 40:10 - just ten minutes behind the overall winning competitor who crossed the line in 30:20. Mark was followed by Aditya Misra-Godwin who came in second for Pratham UK with a time of 42:10 and Tom Roderick was not far behind, finishing the race within a respectable 46:10. Pratham UK’s youngest participant was 14 year-old Shivam Talukdar. Since 1994 Pratham has dramatically improved literacy levels in India and galvanised essential change to the country’s education system. Pratham’s mission is to have “every child in India in school and learning well”. Having brought primary education to 33 million children through its flagship program, Read India, which has channelled the combined efforts of Pratham’s global subsidiaries and international governments, Pratham aims to reach its target of educating 100 million children in India by 2010. In March 2003 Pratham UK was established by a group of volunteers who have been associated with the charity’s movement for several years. The aim of the UK incorporated charity is to raise awareness and funds for Pratham’s programs in India. Since its UK launch, the charity has raised significant sums of money through various sporting and social fundraising events. One of Pratham’s newest initiatives is the Pratham Young Professionals Network, a unique platform that encourages philanthropic endeavours amongst 3rd and 4th generations in the UK. If you are interested in sponsoring the Pratham UK 10km runners, participating in next year’s British 10km London Run on behalf of Pratham UK, or for more information on Pratham, please email office@pratham.org.uk or log onto www.pratham.org.uk |
