Groveley’s operations manager Stuart Leaper raised £1,961 when he ran the London Marathon a couple of weeks ago – and it’s all going to benefit Poole Hospital Charity.
Stuart beat his target of £1,500 and ran the course in a respectable 4hrs 41 mins. He’d hoped to achieve between 4 hrs 30 to 5 hrs, and he was bang on. He says he loved the whole thing.
He wanted to help the hospital because 15 years ago he had life-changing surgery at the hospital for his hearing. Both his children were born there, too.
At this year’s London Marathon, record numbers crossed the finish line in The Mall – over 39,000 runners – including its one millionth finisher, who is yet to be named.
Stuart would now love to raise in excess £2,000 for the hospital… could you help him by donating on his JustGiving page? Here it is… www.justgiving.com/stuartleaper
