Story
To help raise funds for the urgent restorations required internally and externally. 60km in 30 days
After my Husband became the 673rd Mayor of the Historic Town of Hedon. We have had discussions with our Chaplin (Dr Rev Susan Pulko) about the desperate needs for funds for the upkeep of our historic church, St Augustine's Church. After our Chaplin informed us about falling masonry inside and outside the church. Due to Covid-19 all church services had to stop, therefore no collections or any fundraising events could happen.
So I personally felt that I wanted to do whatever I could to help. After sitting and thinking hard. I decided on doing a 60 km walk using my stepper in a seated position, as I have MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and mobility issues. My goal is to step 2km per day during the month of April. My Husband will be recording my daily distance. I wanted to end my husbands term as Mayor by giving something back to the community.

3 years agoThe final day has been completed by Yvonne (And Giz) The last 2km was finished with a large cheer this morning.. Yvonne has smashed her target and is so proud that she has completed her challenge with the support of so many people who know her, and those who don't. There is a long way to go for St Augustine's Church as it needs £15 million of work doing for it.
