THAMES BRIDGES TREK
SATURDAY 13TH SEPTEMBER
25KM OR IN OLD MONEY 15.5 MILES
Yes, you have read it correctly I have been persuaded to take part in the Thames Bridges Trek. Walking from Putney Bridge to Tower Bridge. https://www.ultrachallenge.com/thames-bridges-trek
I’ll be walking with my friend Louisa, her MiL Ann and her husband Tony, her SiL Lucy and Lucy’s friend Noms. We have all been training very hard - Louisa and I started training in Feb and walk most Saturdays in preparation
As a team we are the ‘Golden Oldies’ with an age range from 44 to 70.
FUNDRAISING
Ann and Tony volunteer at the St Peter and St Paul Food Pantry in Rustington. The Pantry is open to anyone struggling financially. We run 4 Pantry sessions a week in different locations: the church hall and 3 schools. All the food we give out is donated by large and small local businesses, people in the community, and churches.
Each week over a 100 people can choose up to 10 items of food, from fresh vegetables, fruit, bread, tinned products, hygiene and laundry products. That’s a massive 1000 items a week. ANYONE WHO IS STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY IS WELCOME.
Alongside the Church Pantry each week, we also have a space for FREE coffee and chat and where representative from various welfare services offer advice from debt managements, housing, electric, gas, water, and insurance concerns. Once a month we have a dinner for Pantry users, often sponsored by a local business. Plus, a quieter afternoon tea for a small group of adult Pantry users, also once a month
If you can, will you please support us by donating to the St Peter and St Paul Food Pantry in Rustington.
Or please support us by cheering us on, thinking of us and praying for good weather and strong legs. Thank you.
