Ed & Neil run 50 miles in 5 days

Ed, one of our residents, and assistant house manager Neil, completed their Big 50 Challenge yesterday as part of our fundraising efforts to celebrate our 50th anniversary.

Starting at Poppit Sands in North Pembrokeshire they ran sections of the coastal path over 5days, finishing with a homeward leg from Llandovery to Rhandirmwyn to be greeted and cheered on by staff, learners and residents of Elidyr.

Running to raise money for charity

Ed was supported  by Neil throughout and they both carried heavy backpacks throughout as an extra challenge. (Neil's was 18kg, rather him than me!)

Celebrating completing the Big 50 Challenge

It has been a superhuman effort from them both as they ran to raise money towards sports equipment for the learners and residents of our charity. Both Ed and Neil would be delighted if you would like to make a donation which you can do on here on Ed's just giving page.
