7th June 2009 - Barking and Dagenham 3km Fun Run

Seven members of the Words Worth Reading team sported their shorts and
t-shirts and braved the mud to take part in the Barking and Dagenham
3km Fun Run. The whole team completed the course successfully with Samantha
Pearce and Sam Bolton leading the team home stride for stride. The total
sum raised through sponsorship of our runners was £305, which has
been donated to Oxfam.

Seven Sisters Dog Walk
On Saturday 5th September, Samantha Pearce with her dog Nanci, and five
members of the Words Worth Reading team and their dogs, travelled to
Eastbourne for a sponsored walk. All six members of the team braved the
elements at the Seven Sisters, the beautiful chalk cliffs on the Sussex
Heritage coastline. The Seven Sisters Country Park offers some of the
finest coastal downland views in the whole of the UK; not that the Words
Worth Reading team had much time to look!

Walking over the cliffs and back again, the team covered a staggering
distance of 20 miles which took approximately 6
hours to walk! They managed
to squeeze in just enough time for lunch before the hike back. Some of
the team found themselves consuming large amounts of cream scones before
the return, purely to keep up their energy levels!
Despite the intense wind and rough landscape, the Words Worth Reading
team and their dogs loved the experience, though most of those taking
part couldn’t
move the next day! In spite of their aching muscles, they remained cheerful remembering
that they had raised a massive £150 for Oxfam! Words Worth
Reading would
like to say a big thank you to all those who sponsored them.

In addition to Oxfam, we actively raise money for The Dogs Trust; The RSPCA; The Basement Project; Beat; BPD World and SWWJ
