The ongoing story of the Wirecard fraud scandal has raised questions around why so many people maintained a collective belief in the German company’s success story for so long.

We did it! Team Diligencia completed the Oxford Town and Gown 10k last Sunday along with 2,000+ other runners.
We received fantastic support from friends and family, who both ran and cheered us on. We also smashed our target and have so far raised £1,290 for Muscular Dystrophy UK.
To everyone who supported us, THANK YOU, we are so grateful. Every penny counts and helps Muscular Dystrophy UK carry out essential research in their drive towards effective treatments.
Now, what should our next challenge be???
