We're not surprised to see in the news that the London Marathon is setting records for 2027 applications!

Having cheered our #TeamRDT runner, Marco Seitner on from the sidelines - it's easy to see why so many inspiring people want to take part.

Last week Anna went to visit the BMF (Builders' Merchants Federation) to present medals and hampers to our #MadMarchMillion Top Fundraisers.

Enthusiasm, energy, commitment - when we say this team got behind the MMM campaign from the outset - wow, did they ever!

Not long left to take part in C-TEC's amazing competition in partnership with The National Buying Group.

All in support of the Rainy Day Trust - they are giving away a fantastic goodie-filled CT1 hamper for all stockists to raffle.

Look out for in-store displays.
