Fundraising for Burton & District Mind
Challenge 2 of 3 for MIND Burton & District is complete!
Previously, Dom Barraclough finished the Manchester Marathon and, together with Charlie Eaton, they accomplished the "Chase the Sun" challenge, starting from Whitley Bay, England, at sunrise and cycling all the way to Ayr, Scotland, before sunset. The journey lasted 17 hours and 57 seconds, covering a distance of 200.09 miles.
We had planned to include a skydive at Langar as the third challenge, but it was cancelled on the day due to poor weather conditions. Nonetheless, the next challenge is approaching: cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats in 9 days, camping throughout the journey. It's only two months away!
Dom and Charlie are fundraising for Burton & District Mind , a fantastic charity that makes a significant impact in our community. All funds collected will directly support their operational costs, including supplies like tea and coffee. If you're able to contribute, click here to support the Mind team in their mission to help others.
