From John O'Groats to Lands End - in a Morris Minor

Ray Parker has just completed the famous Jogle (John O'Groats to Lands End) in his beautiful Morris Minor. Ray is the father of Jonathan who lives at the Centre and compelete the trip to raise money for the minibus appeal. He reports,
"I am pleased to say that we completed the run from John O' Groats to lands end on tuesday/wednesday. The car performed really well and didn't miss a beat. We did the run in 20 hours and 25 minutes including stops for food, fuel etc. It was a sunny and windy day at John O Groats and a scorching hot day at Lands End."

In At The Deep End

Anne Cramp who attended our Assessment Centre back in 1985 decided to raise money for our minibus appeal. She completed a sponsored swim in memory of John Croke who also had epilepsy and sadly passed away in 2006. She was supported by John's family and raised £800.

Dawn's 2008 Challenge- what a year!

Dawn Fletcher from Aspect Print likes a challenge. At the start of 2008, she decided she was going to support our minibus appeal, by holding not one, not two, but three fundraising events this year. So far so good! The first event, The Beat Goes On, was a sponsored drumming event. 10 young drummers accompanied by their teacher Jason kept the beat for 5 hours and raised over £3500. The second event was a Golf Day at Horsley Lodge, Derbyshire. Held on the 12th June, it looks like it will have raised over £2500. To complete the line up, Dawn will be holding a fantastic masked ball in October. After that, she'll be putting her feet up!

Radbroke Hall Staff Return to the Centre

We were delighted to welcome back Cath Gallagher and a team of 20 from Barclays Bank at Radbroke Hall. They completed the makeover of the gardens at Maple and Rowan in record time. The gardens look absolutely fantastic and both childrens' houses have been making the most of them by holding BBQs at the weekends.
