Thank you to Josephine and Michael on their Scarborough 10k!

THANK YOU to Josephine and Michael Riley who ran the Scarborough 10k on Sunday in their target time.

They are fundraising on behalf of Charlotte Straker House, as Wendy, a dear family friend, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and has recently moved into our care home.

They have already raised an amazing £855 and are leaving their fundraising page open until 22nd October for any further donations.

The money they have raised will go directly to Wendy’s care with the purchase of specialised wireless communication device that she can use without any staff support.

Berenice Groves, our Chair of the Trustees said “Thank you so much to Josephine and Michael for raising such an amazing total – we have been following their training and final run, which was in a very good time. The trustees and I whole heartedly support the purchase of this specialised device, to allow our resident Wendy to retain her independence and support her communication.”
