💫 4️⃣0️⃣th Memorial Steps in May for Mark 💫
290,581 steps (Mark's date of birth) which is approx 113 miles / 182 kms for me.
Mark was born on 29th of May 1981 and would have been 40 this year 💔 I wanted to mark his birthday by doing something for charity in his name.
From Saturday 1st May until Saturday 29th May (Mark's 40th) I will be trying to complete 290,581 steps to raise some much needed funds for PIPS Hope & Support. (I meant to post this yesterday but just couldn't quite face it 😔)
On Saturday 29th May myself and anyone else who wishes to join me will finish by completing a 10 mile walk around Clare Glen / Glebe Hill's (the same walk we done for his 30th fundraiser, starting and finishing at The Oaks carpark). I would love to see some friendly faces there 😁 Just let me know if you would like to join me so we can have an idea of numbers.
If you can, I would greatly appreciate any donations for PIPS in Mark's name every £1 counts. Thank you from all the family ❤ Your support at every level from Mark died in 2001 has been truly unwavering and we are forever grateful for all you wonderful people that continue to support us all at every opportunity 🙌
