Find out how much the Go1984 challenge raised

August 7, 2024 | Pippa Vincent-Cooke

When we set the Go1984! Challenge mileage we were worried we were too ambitious…

When we set the fundraising target of £7,000 we wondered if this was too much…

We should know not to underestimate the power of a BMSTC team!

Not only did we ‘travel from’ Agadir ‘to’ Reading – we also travelled back in time to 1984! (well in fashion anyway!)

As for the fundraising…the terrific total amount raised was £9,410.56 (with another £1,528 in Gift Aid to be claimed).

Thank you so much everyone who took part in the challenge and supported the team – you are truly amazing! This money will be turned into physiotherapy and exercise classes.

Congratulations to our member Gill, who was the winner of our fundraising draw. (If anyone has any further sponsorship money to bring in, we will of course still be very happy to accept it.)

We loved the Go1984 Challenge and we look forward to seeing where we go in 2025!
