Triumphant duo complete gruelling London Marathon! |
  |
Staff members Sian Close and Chris Ball competed in the London Marathon on Sunday, 23 April - the culmination of months of preparation in the gym, and on the roads in and around Exmouth, for the big event. The dynamic duo crossed the line in just under six hours and were delighted with the result, although the aches and pains have yet to really kick in! £5000 has been raised over the last few months for the South West Multiple Sclerosis Centre in Exeter.
The Centre offers an enormous support to sufferers and their families however the cost of providing specialist therapies, support and advice amounts to some £70,000 every year, all of which has to be provided through fundraising.
With donations and
pledges still coming in, anyone wishing to support Sian & Chris'
fundraising effort for the South West MS Centre can still do so by sending a
cheque to; The South West MS Centre, West Grange, Clyst Heath, Exeter, EX2
7EY. Please mark envelope "Marathon".
