We did it! We successfully ran, walked, cycled and rowed the distance of the River Thames on Saturday 11th October. Alongside gym users the Community Centre and Gym staff team worked tirelessly to cover the full 346 kilometres from source to sea to raise funds for much needed gym equipment.

Thank you to all who participated as well as those who sponsored participants and made donations to this very worthy cause. At 3pm we were 40km short of our target, so a few volunteers and the staff team hopped back on the gym equipment and we were able to make those finish line at 3:20pm.

There is still time to support the fundraiser by donating using the QR code in the above photo gallery!

Autumn Gym Fundraiser

Join staff, trustees and volunteers of the Cambrian Community Centre as they aim to raise money for new gym equipment. This year we have a two pronged approach. We are raising funds to replace one of the gyms exercise bikes and also to purchase a chair to accompany the MOTOMed Muvi that allows people of all abilities to exercise.

On Saturday October 11th between 8am and 3pm we are aiming to WALK, RUN, ROW or CYCLE the length of the River Thames. From source to sea the Thames is 238 miles in length and we are aiming to combine all distances covered (however great or small) to raise money through sponsorship.

If you are interested in joining us, you can sign up to do as much or as little on October 11th, alternatively you can sponsor one of the staff team to cover as much distance as possible on the day. Further information on how to sign up, sponsor or donate to the cause is available from the gym staff.

We are also holding a RAFFLE to be drawn at the end of the fundraiser, and we have been donated a variety of prizes, details of which can be found HERE. Tickets are £2 each, and area available for the gym team or Centre Manager David.

If you are interested in supporting the day, please talk call 020 8948 3351 or e-mail gym@cambriancentre.org
