Kevin Sinfield – 7 in 7 Together

Kevin and his team are aiming to raise funds for Motor Neurone Disease Associations and bring together the MND Community with his latest challenge. They are setting themselves a challenge to run seven ultramarathons in seven days across seven cities or regions. This will include an Extra Mile event where members of the MND community will join Kev for one mile each day from 1st to 7th December 2025. Each day will be broken down into 7km blocks that Sinfield must complete within the hour, before setting off on the next leg at the hour.

Six MND charities will once again benefit from the challenge. The MND Association are the main beneficiary, along with donations to Leeds Hospitals Charity’s support for the Rob Burrow Centre, Irish MND Association, Darby Rimmer Foundation, My Name’5 Doddie Foundation and MND Scotland.

This initiative wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support and collaboration of Resusing-IT (Registered Scottish Charity Number SC037716), a local organization dedicated to giving electronics a second life and reducing waste. Their expertise in refurbishing and preparing these devices was invaluable, ensuring each laptop is ready to inspire and educate.

In today’s digital world, access to technology is more crucial than ever for a child’s learning and development. These laptops will open up a world of opportunities for the students at St Paul’s Primary School, enhancing their classroom experiences, supporting their creative projects, and helping them develop essential digital literacy skills.

We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone involved, especially Resuing IT, for making this dream a reality. This project is a testament to what we can achieve when we work together to support our local community and invest in the future of our children.

ReusingIT helps so many around the world, and Mear Technology has been donating hardware and supporting Reusing IT since 2013. A fantastic local charity with which Mear Technology is deeply proud to be associated. See how Reusing IT and Yorkshire aid are helping to support the vulnerable people in Ukraine in the video below.

Please consider donating to Reusing IT. Help them continue their great work.

What does Mear Technology do with Reusing IT?

Mear Technology has been working with Reusing IT to help reduce our clients’ environmental impact. We collect and store all electronic waste from our clients, then donate it all to Reusing IT, who repurpose what it can and recycles the rest. We love that our clients’ waste is being put to such a worthwhile cause. It is humbling to not only support a local charity but to ensure that our electrical waste is put to good use.

Beyond our digital waste, we have worked alongside Reusing IT to help our charity clients reduce their IT costs through refurbished hardware supplied by Reusing IT.
