Story

The neighbours off Thameside Reading
have entertained the local community with their blaring music and bounding energy since day one of lock down.  They exercise EVERY DAY outside their houses, no matter what the weather throws at them.  They are a common sight to all the passers by and over time several people have joined them.  One person in particular is 91yr old David who stops to chat with them almost every day. 

What started as a 45minute lock down exercise has grown to full blown exercise session lasting an average of 1hr 20mins.   The ladies now want to turn their efforts into a fundraising event for the Rotary Club of Reading Matins and their favourite charities "Berkshire Women’s Aid'.   Many families have suffered domestic violence during lock down and Berkshire women’s Aid are under more pressure than ever.  Please help the Thames Side Ladies make a difference to those who could not escape their abusers.

Day 100 is the 1st July - Please Donate and help with the Count down.   Or come and support us at 11am on 1st July for day 100.
