Iʼve raised £6,000 to help buy sensory equipment
- Funded on Saturday, 6th November 2021
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
As you may know, my eldest son Josh lives in a care home, and the management team of the home are installing a sensory room in the garden for all the residents. Sensory room equipment can run to hundreds and thousands of pounds so I had another of my mad ideas... I would complete a sponsored 5k run in order to raise some funds.
Now, I know that doesn't sound very exciting but I won't be completing this run on my own - Josh will be joining me! So I will be completing the 5k pushing around 95k (the combined weight of Josh and his wheelchair).
The run is due to take place on Friday 23rd July 2021 at 10am, and we will be completing our 5k at Saracens Rugby ground in North London (running the athletics track around the pitch).
If you feel like bringing a little sensory sparkle into these residents lives, all donations will be gratefully received :-)
