Story

Well I am at it again with my most ambitious marathon fundraiser to date!  I will run a marathon on 4 consecutive days at 4 Music Man Project branches with each run being followed by a fundraising concert by the regional MMP! 

I will start each run at 9am from the MMP branch concert venue and then run 4 loops of 6.55 miles to make the 26.2 mile marathon distance. At the end of each marathon I will run (or stagger!) into the venue to start the concert. My aim is to raise at least £1,000 for each of the 4 Music Man Projects!

This is the Just Giving site for leg 3 of the 4in4 and this will be for our Maldon MMP, so to provide some information about the group, I will now pass over to regional director Natalie Bradford.

‘Music Man Project Maldon was the first satellite group to be established outside of the immediate Southend area.  This group was founded and is led by tutor and regional director Natalie Bradford, alongside assistants Tori Bradford and Roger Steele. The group was established in 2015 and meet weekly on a Monday at the United Reformed Church hall in Maldon. Many of the students are members of the ‘Pioneers’ group  - a local social club for adults with learning disabilities. MMP Maldon is a very happy and supportive environment in which students can experience all the amazing opportunities that the Music Man Project has to offer, particularly performing at concerts which we all enjoy very much. We are continuing to expand and look forward to the exciting times ahead!’

So a big thank you to all for visiting my Maldon MMP Just Giving page and for donating towards this rather ambitious fundraiser of mine!
