We’d like to give a big WELL DONE and THANK YOU to all of our runners who participated in this weekend’s Endure 24 - a 24-hour race - to raise funds for Sunshine & Smiles!
An amazing 441 miles were run in 24 hours between 11 Endure24 runners and Sunshine & Smiler Thalia running the Mini Mile!
We’d like to thank:
- Kerry Maule
- Evelyn Southwell
- Rob Henderson
- Lee Gilbank
- Kevin Harley-Roberts
- Liz Conner
- Alison Hunter
- Callum Crawford
- Rhys Wordsworth
- Amy Thomson
- Ailith Harley-Roberts
So far, we have raised over £5500 - vital funds to help us support over 190 children and young people in Leeds who have Down syndrome, and their families.
We also had THE BEST cheer squad and volunteers - a big thank you to everyone who turned out to help and support us.
P.S. Sunshine & Smiles are also going to be the Endure24 Leeds local charity partner again next year - if you’ve got FOMO from this year’s event and would like to sign up to run with us, you can do so here: https://forms.gle/Y5H7EfE4UkC3VNsy9
