Headline IPC's Charity Fundraiser

Well done to Chris and Jaclyn for completing their challenges, raising money for Reuben's Retreat.

On 16 May, Jackie took on Born Survivor, a gruelling 10k obstacle course that tested grit, determination and commitment. Battling the cold, rain, mud, steep hills, fire, obstacles and yes... even cow pats, Jackie tackled the 1-hour 45-minute course and absolutely smashed it, helping to raise over £4,000 for our chosen charity, Reuben’s Retreat.

Then it was Chris’s turn...

On 31 May, just one day after an all-inclusive (indulgent) holiday full of food, drink and sunshine, Chris took on the Manchester Half Marathon, that’s 13.1 miles of pure regret.

Currently, Jackie is wiping the floor with Chris in the votes... can we help boost him into first place? Just imagine running a half marathon straight after an all-inclusive holiday. He deserves all the support he gets! 😅

Why we are fundraising

Reuben’s Retreat provides support, care and holiday stays for families facing life-limiting or life-threatening childhood illness, or bereavement.

Here’s how your donation could help:

£20 – Bereavement books and resources for a sibling experiencing loss
£50 – Helps a family attend a fun event and make magical memories
£100 – Counselling support for a parent experiencing child loss
£1,000 – Contributes towards building two fully accessible apartments at the Retreat
