Hope24 is a 24 hour endurance relay event for individuals or teams, set on a 5 miles course in Plympton, Devon. Russell Worth have 3 teams entering with a total of 13 crazy individuals taking part. Why would anyone do that? Good question! The reason we will be dragging ourselves around and around and around the woods is to raise money for some truly wonderful children through the charity Brainwave. Brainwave is a south west charity who work alongside children with special needs and requirements. Brainwave assists children who have difficulties in being able to walk or speak as a result of numerous conditions. Brainwave can assist a child from birth through to the age of 16 to allow them to live as independent a life as possible. http://www.brainwave.org.uk/
To start raising funds we recently held a cake sale, raffle and ‘guess the number of sweets’ in the jar competition raising a total of £125. Liz Duncan (one of our crazy 13) won the chocolate house and Chris Harding won the jar of sweets. Photos below.
