Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the team page of Rach's Runners our team consists of (in no particular order!!):

  • Mark Clement
  • Linda Chigaru
  • Emma Sturgess
  • Lynn Shields
  • Beverley Halvorsen-Steele
  • Richard Paget

    Two years ago we ran (well limped round) the Monster
    obstacle race in memory of our dear friend and colleague Rachel Higson who passed away following a prolonged illness. We raised a whopping £3,295!!

    The team are keen to continue honouring her memory by
    participating in regular events . 

    We are all aware of the risk of charity fatigue and decided to complete an event every two years. 

    Actually who are we kidding it has taken us two years to recover from our last race.

    On April 22nd 2017 the CATS team will be taking on the Gung Ho 5km race at Windsor which is an obstacle race over inflatables!
    It’s going to be hard work but a whole lot of fun –hopefully without injury!!

    Rachel was a special person who touched the hearts of
    everyone who knew her. Her presence and constant smile brightened the day of everyone who came into contact with her.

    She was an outstanding nurse, friend and colleague, who is
    greatly missed by everyone that knew her.

    She will never be forgotten and we are keen that her legacy
    goes on to enable others to care for patients and families in her inimitable
    way.

    Please sponsor us if you feel able or provide messages of
    support on our CATS Facebook page or on Twitter.

    If you want a giggle take a look at the race page to see
    what we are going to have to do!
