Watermead Challenge Presentation

The Watermead Challenge charity run organised by Wreake Valley Rotary Club in July raised £4,500 for worthwhile causes.
Dr Reem Al- Jayoussi, Consultant Nephrologist, attended a club meeting recently to accept a £2,000 cheque on behalf of Leicester General Hospital Renal Unit. She is seen above in the centre with Rotary club president Peter Fox and Sarah Willcox of Syston who received a kidney transplant in October 2018.
The remainder of the proceeds from the run are being divided between Abigail Herus a teenage cancer sufferer from Syston and Leicestershire Life Education, a schools health education charity.
Peter Fox commented:” the Watermead Challenge run is a popular annual event. Rotary are only too pleased that as a result of it’s success we are able to support these local charitable causes”.
