Weʼve raised £1,005 to help fund new playground equipment for Kirkheaton Primary School.
- Funded on Saturday, 30th June 2018
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
My daughter, Emily, is in Reception class at Kirkheaton Primary School.
The school provides a super environment for the children.
The teachers and staff put lots of effort in and I would like to do my bit.
I am going to go for a walk.
I started walking in January to try to lose a bit of weight and I walk between 5 and 10 miles on a Saturday morning.
For this fundraiser I aim to walk 25 miles.
My pace for 10 miles is about 3hours 15minutes, so for 25 miles I expect to be walking for about 9 hours.
I'll obviously need the odd break here and there, so it'll probably be a 12 hour day.
The walk will be on Saturday 9th June 2018.
Will you support me please ?
I initially hoped to raise £500 but after receiving phenomenal support from so many friends and colleagues I have passed the £600 mark so have moved the target to £700 !!!
The walk was great. Weather was just right and did it in 9 hours including a break.
The money is still rolling in and I am beginning to think we'll pass £1000.
Thanks for your support and generosity.
Let's buy some new playground equipment !!

6 years agoThanks for the amazing support. We're at £260 already. Will be doing an extended practice walk this weekend and driving my proposed route. It will include Emley Moor, Castle Hill, and Huddersfield John Smith's Stadium. Hopefully I can keep it to 25 miles - I don't really want to do 26 !!
