Claire, Jane, Donna, Julie, Tyler, Andy, Alison, Paula and hopefully even more colleagues joining along the way will walk the half marathon route together to raise money for experiences and activities that help enrich residents’ lives.

The Residents’ Amenity Fund supports those extra touches that make a meaningful difference each day, including entertainment, outings, celebrations, activities, and special experiences for residents to enjoy.

The team say every mile they walk is dedicated to the people they care for every day.

A spokesperson from Ridgeway House said: 

Training for a half marathon is no small challenge, but as a team we are proud to push ourselves for such a meaningful cause. We see every day how important activities, companionship, and special experiences are for our residents, and we want to continue creating moments that truly matter.

Even our residents are getting involved, walking 50 laps around the garden. The home is encouraging support from families, friends, and the wider local community, with donations helping the team reach their fundraising goals and provide even more opportunities for residents in the future.

Loved ones and supporters are also warmly invited to join the team on the day and walk alongside them.

The more the merrier! We would love members of our community to join us, cheer us on, or support us through donations and encouragement.
