Castle & Islands Endurance Challenge

1st Jun 2014 | Construction & Engineering

Please help us raise money for North East Charity TOMA which needs funds to help children with cancer and their parents and helpers. 

On Friday evening 20 June 2014 we start the Castles & Islands Endurance Challenge. This is a gruelling mix of sailing 50 miles offshore, overnight round the Farne Islands/Holy Island/Seahouses without engines; and running 30 miles between dusk and dawn in 4 races featuring the castles of Bamburgh, Holy Island, Alnwick and Dunstanborough.  We are 3 sailors and 3 runners working as a team.  If we can do this within the 24hr deadline, will you work with us to help TOMA, please?

TOMA are our Charity of the Year and all funds raised will go to helping support children, teenagers, young people and their families in the North East and Cumbria who have been affected by a diagnosis of childhood cancer.

If you would like to pledge a donation against us finishing the course inside 24 hours, and so completing the challenge, please email [email protected] or go to our JustGiving page.

Thank you very much!
