Amy, Georgia and Lucy are taking on the challenge of running the notoriously challenging Tunbridge Wells Half Marathon, to raise money for St George's Childcare.
St George's is the only nursery locally that is a charity; this enables them to put the children first in all decision making and to reinvest any surplus into improving the setting for the benefit of all of the children. St George's also provide subsidised, sometimes completely free, places for children who are in vulnerable circumstances, all paid for by their community fundraising activities. They work with local authorities, social services, health visitors, the women’s refuge and other organisations, who refer children that would especially benefit, and families that wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford childcare. While the children are in St George's care, their families have the time and space they need to move on in their lives; whether it’s receiving physical or mental health treatment, caring for family members with additional care needs, returning to work, or earning extra money for the family.
The race will take place on Sunday 23rd February 2024, starting at 9am at TW Leisure Centre on St John's Road.
