IS THERE ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN MONEY?

This month, rather than my usual monthly article about finance I would like to let you guys know why First Avenue Finance supports The Royal Children’s Hospital and specifically, the annual Run for the Kids event.

Each year my wife Kristy, my daughter Isabella and I participate in the Run for the Kids event as part of Team Hammertime, which is co-ordinated tirelessly by dear friends of ours Brad and Katrina Jenkinson, in memory of their beautiful little boy Hamish.

Each March, as the event comes around I find myself re-reading Brad and Katrina’s story and all of a sudden money, mortgages and finance just becomes a whole lot less important for a little while.

In the interests of full disclosure, I did a lot more walking than running at the event again this year as usual!
