A LADIES football team and staff from a Yorkshire-based property developer got stuck into a muddy challenge to raise thousands of pounds for poorly children.
Members of Harrogate Town Ladies FC and staff at the private home builder Strata recently took part at the X-Runner Wild Mud Run in Derbyshire.
The run is a challenging obstacle course stretching over ten kilometres and participants have to be prepared to tackle mud, water and all manner of gruelling obstacles.
The Harrogate and Strata team managed to complete the full course and raised an impressive sum of more than £6,000 for the Danielle’s Flutterbyes charity.
The charity aims to help young people suffering from kidney disease by funding activities, holidays, days out and equipment to make life easier while they are receiving treatment.
The charity was set up in memory of Danielle Stretton who died in 2014 aged just 24 after a five year battle with an undiagnosed illness that led to kidney failure.
