Andy Maudsley completed the 2019 London Marathon course in support of #TeamYMCA in a fantastic 3 hours and 56 mins! That’s an average pace of 8min 27 secs per mile and if any of you run at all, you’ll know that’s a pretty fast speed to maintain for that distance. We are so very proud of him and his achievement and we cannot thank him enough.
Andy is husband to Anna, our Director of Accommodation, Care & support. Andy has been a fabulous supporter of The Y and previously took part in Race to the Stones; a 100 kilometre non-stop run or walk along the Ridgeway (The Chilterns to the North Wessex Downs).
This year we were delighted that Andy received a charity marathon place from YMCA England & Wales and as his local YMCA we’ll also receive a share of his fundraising. We just wanted to share with you an update after the event. If you’d like to support his efforts, the fundraising is still open and any contribution would be massively appreciated. You can donate online here through JustGiving.
On behalf of Andy, Anna and all of us here at The Y, Thank You to everyone who has donated to Andy’s marathon and wished him well.
We had a huge turnout of support for our little Easter egg appeal which we named “The Y Eggxtra Appeal”. We would like to thank every single wonderful person that donated a chocolate egg so that we could give something to each of our young people and service users. An Easter egg is a small item that can just bring a smile to someone’s face and brighten their day.
