13 miles, 6 hours and over £2,000 raised! 🚶♂️
Yesterday, members of our Sandburn Hall & Griffon Forest team completed a 13-mile charity walk in memory of our much-loved colleague and friend, Andy, raising money for St Leonard's Hospice 🌻
Setting off from the Greenkeepers’ Shed here at Sandburn Hall, the team walked all the way to St Leonard’s Hospice, with a few well-earned stops along the way!
We originally set ourselves a fundraising target of £1,000, so we’re absolutely thrilled to have now raised over £2,000! A HUGE thank you to everyone who has donated, shared our fundraiser or supported us along the way!
And of course, a massive well done to everyone who took part yesterday. You absolutely smashed it! 👏
We also want to say a huge thank you to the Cross Keys - York, who very kindly provided some complimentary food for everyone after the walk, it was incredibly appreciated after 13 miles!
All in memory of Andy, while raising money for a charity that meant so much to him 💙
