Rosie runs her first Half Marathon ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜

Rosemary Bonnar is raising money for Cheadle Heath Community Association

Wilmslow Half Marathon ยท 22 February 2026

Sheila was passionate about serving her community and there are hundreds of stories we can all share on just how well she did this. Here at the Rose Walker Community Centre, Sheila has a special place in our hearts because thanks to her grit and determination, we were able to not only keep our doors open but go on to be a thriving hub for our local community and home to the ground-breaking Friendly Fridays project. But Sheila didnโ€™t stop there! Sheila encouraged new investment in the adjacent Cheadle Heath Park, with a brand new multi-use games area, new benches, a community order, and a play area for little children on order. And still Sheila kept going! Whilst the centre is a fantastic venue and very popular with private groups and hire for birthday parties, Sheila felt something was missing. She wanted to get more community in the community centre. So she turned to two local community leaders and encouraged them to set up a new type of project โ€“ Friendly Fridays. Friendly Fridays opened in February 2018 and is free for the whole community to enjoy. Friendly Fridays is age friendly, ability friendly, and dog friendly. It has gone from strength to strength, providing vital support through the pandemic and now celebrating an incredible summer, with over 200 people a week coming through the doors during the summer holidays. Sheila loved the fact that we have โ€œbuilt a community in our communityโ€. We hope you can donate to continue the good work being carried out.
