Fundraiser of the Month: Festive Stravaart Reindeer routes

Why did the club choose Children with Cancer UK? 

Why would you not want to. I ran the virtual London Marathon for Children with Cancer UK during lockdown and loved the group support.

How did the event go? 

It’s going great so far. I’ve joined a few run groups and friends taking on one of the reindeer and doing a lot of the promoting/re-sharing on Instagram and Strava.

It also made the local online paper, so I’m hoping this will help to reach a larger audience I’ve not been able to tap into

What would you say to anyone else who is considering taking on a fundraising challenge? 

Do not hesitate. Charities need as much support as possible particularly at this time. It’s been an amazing experience for me personally and I’ve learned a few skills and made friends.

By encouraging runners to run his routes, Simon has so far raised an amazing £979 for Children with Cancer UK’s work, which will help us invest in more life-saving childhood cancer research. We’d like to say a huge thank you for your support – it is only thanks to supporters like you that we can continue our work.
