Charlie and Steph McKeever have now given up the pub but they are still active supporters of our cause. They, assisted by the two children, ran the store collection at Stow-on-the-Wold and raised £362.65.

Volunteers staffed the car park at Rikenel Health Centre on Saturday 10th. May 2008 and raised £224.00.

Simon Smith ran the Tewkesbury Half Marathon in 1 hour 36 minutes in spite of excessive heat and little trouble with his hip. He raised £350.00 bringing his total contribution for 6 races to a little under £2,000.

Any more willing athletes out there? You can enjoy your sport and help others at the same time.
