London Marathon support for WAlk 4 Water 2015

Sun, Apr 26th 2015 at 12:00 am - 12:00 am

Stephanie Bloor, Bursar at Swalecliffe CP School completed the London Marathon in support of Walk 4 water 2015 and to date has raised over �600 in sponsorship.


Stephanie's school, along with many others supported Walk 4 Water 2015 in March this year (see detail on this site) and having been accepted to run in the London Marathon Stephanie asked if she could run in aid of Walk 4 Water 2015 and extend the support / donations from the schools for this great cause. Naturally we were very honoured to be asked and said YES!

Stephanie completed the run in 4hrs 38mins 47 seconds which was a fantastic personal achievement and we are very proud of her for doing so and has so far raised over £600 for Walk 4 Water 2015 - a GREAT RESULT - but its still not too late for you to donate by going to the link below!

Funds from Walk 4 Water 2015 raised this year are going to continue a great project in Muzuzu, Malawi that over the last 3 years has helped provide support for local people to design, build, install and maintain clean water and sanitation for over 40,000 people as well as provide health care advise to help stop the spread of disease. This project is an extension to that aimed at a further 2800 people with greater health care advice / training as well.

Due to the connection with our friends at Rotary Club of Apeldoorn et Loo in Holland we can also get matched funding so every £1 becomes £2. Clubs in Holland also walked to support the project in March so its a truly international project.

Help us support Stephanie in this great event.

Thank you
