Weʼve raised £3,110 to reboot the reserves of St Catherine's Church
- Funded on Sunday, 1st October 2017
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
St Catherine's needs a reboot to her reserves, having spent £54K on a new heating system in Autumn 2016. So over the next year we're going to do a lot of fundraising things and we're kicking things off with a sponsored run - Vicar (lazy vicar), plus some better and fitter runners. The Vicar has been training since May (less lazy) to do this. Get behind us!!

7 years agoDear friends, In truth this journey started in February, when I decided to start running. But this dramatic chapter began right at the end of August, when I asked you guys to help me raise money for the church & centre. My personal goal was £1000. I raised £2110 and the first grand was matched, which has taken us to £3, 100. There were 9 other runners and their money is coming in bit by bit - I think we will touch £4K. Which leaves me beyond thanks and beyond words. You were brilliant - a huge thanks to each one of you. #gotheextramile

7 years agoHi everyone! Just back from holidays... and amazed to find out that people kept on giving and today we just crashed through the £3000 barrier... Am excited and overjoyed. Thanks everyone so much. The donations page is open for another 11 days... so who knows we might get to £3200. Given that our initial target was £1K and that the rest of the team have raised a further £1K.... I'm super delighted. It's a good news story that won't appear on the News at 10, but it's made me feel glad.

I'm Sheridan and I'm the Vicar of St Catherine's. I'm not a natual runner or particularly fit, but since February 2017 I've been trying to get better. I'm running the 5K for fun and to raise £1000 for the church.
