The Cookes go Land's End to John O'Groats
Take care everyone, and there's still time to donate if you haven't already! 😊

*****
In April 2020, Glossopdale Foodbank provided a total of 240 food parcels. This is over four times as many parcels given out in April 2019.
Because of the dramatic increase in demand, Glossopdale Foodbank are no longer receiving sufficient food donations to meet demand, and they are having to purchase most of the food they are providing. So the Cookes have come up with a plan to help a little, and to perhaps get a bit fitter at the same time.
The Cookes will be propelling themselves 1,310km during the month of June to make you part with your hard earned cash. According to that trusty website Wikipedia, this is the shortest route you could travel from Land's End to John O'Groats. We will be walking, running, cycling and even toddling to inspire you to donate.
The team members are Margaret, Patrick, Philip, Rachel, Layla, Alex, Gosia, Benita and Oliver. Layla is only 2, so she is likely to be more of a hindrance than a help...
Please dig deep so someone doesn't go hungry tomorrow. Thank you.

You are amazing! David and Helga
