Stepping Stones NI staff and Supporters Fundraising with their feet!!

Stepping Stones is taking a health and conscious approach to their fundraising. The staff team alongside board members and other supporters of the charity will be taking to the streets of Belfast on 1st May for the Belfast Marathon and on 25th June for the Lisburn 10K and half marathon.

Business Development Manager Cara Cash commented: “We need to fundraise in order to help sustain the training and employment services for people with learning disabilities and learning difficulties. New Year resolutions and high hopes of getting fit provided the motivation for the Stepping Stones team so we thought we could kill two birds with one stone, get fit and raise money for the charity at the same time!”

The Charity will be entering relay teams for the event and would welcome any individual runners who would like to fundraise to help the charity make a difference to the lives of a person with learning disability.” We realise that entering a marathon is a commitment that goes beyond putting change in a fundraising box, but we intend to support those taking part as much as possible” commented Cara. “We are currently working on training plans that people can follow to make sure they are prepared as much as possible, these will start to be uploaded to our website. We will also be putting up helpful hints and tips for running/walking a leg of the marathon.
