Wow! Fundraising total rises to £9,500

Thanks to all our gym families for raising a total of £3,700 in sponsor money for our 50 Miles in 50 Days appeal.

Gymnasts, siblings, families and friends completed a wide variety of activities including horse riding, bike riding, running and lots and lots of walking.

What an amazing effort – thank you so much. This goes a long way towards our grand plans to extend facilities at our Gwernaffield base.

50K for 50 years: Fundraising update

totaliser

Thanks to everyone who has helped us to make a great start to our £50,000 appeal to improve and extend facilities at our Gwernaffield gym.

So far, we held our Festival of Gymnastics, hosted a Halloween party and collected a van full of second hand clothes.

Our totalizer currently stands at £5,800 and we have yet to collect all the sponsor money from our 50 Miles in 50 Days campaign.

We know some gymnasts and families have managed to raise an impressive amount. We really appreciate all your efforts!
