Charity walk raises over £2,000 for the Barth Syndrome Foundation
A huge well done to all 27 members of Team Eclipse [2], who recently completed the Jane Tomlinson’s Walk for All “Blockbuster” charity hike.
The Blockbuster [3] event saw hundreds of participants take on the challenge of a 14-mile hike in the Yorkshire Dales. The hikers experienced all weather seasons – from heavy rain and gale-force winds, through to welcoming sunshine – whilst tackling the arduous route which included a 418-step climb up Malham Cove.
Eclipse’s nominated charity for the event was for the Barth Syndrome Foundation [4]. BST is dedicated to saving lives through education, advances in treatment, and finding a cure for Barth syndrome – a sometimes fatal, oftentimes debilitating genetic disease affecting boys.
Team Eclipse raised over £2,000 for the charity, and would like to thank all of those who kindly made donations. To show your support, you can still donate – please visit the Eclipse Virgin Money Giving page [5].
