Mr Ostler’s Great North Run fundraiser!

Click to read more or to donate on Mick’s JustGiving page

We wanted to share with our wider school community the fundraising challenge that Mick Ostler, who is part of our fantastic Site Management team, has set himself. On the 11th September 2022 he is taking on doing the Great North Run for Maggie’s Centres – an amazing charity supporting both those diagnosed with cancer and with their families.

You can read more about the work that Maggie’s does on their website

Mick explained to that he first encountered the Maggie’s Centre in Leeds when his wife was referred for radiotherapy, and how they were blown away by the building, the staff and the sense of peace and tranquillity that they found at the centre from the moment of stepping through the door.

If you are able to make a donation, we are sure it will be greatly appreciated, and will make a real difference.

Thank you!
