AJ Bell Great North Run, 8 September 2024.

Mark Boocock is fundraising for Howlands (justgiving.com)

“Ok, so I’m doing this whether I like it or not. Yep, 13.1 miles. I am daft but this is just crazy.

Please help me raise much needed funds for Howlands by donating if you can. Howlands helps disadvantaged people find confidence, forge friendships and create lifelong connections through bespoke arts and crafts. The place warms my heart and makes a difference to many people.

My friend Craig will be guiding me round so I don’t bang into people or trip over anything. Who dares wins and I’m daring!”

If you would like to sponsor Mark either visit the JustGiving link in this article or ask any member of Howlands Staff for a sponsor form. Please give if you can; every penny helps.
