James and Samantha are set to cover 25 miles across 7 Age UK stores in just one day.
On Thursday, November 30th, 2023, James Bishop and Samantha Pratt, dedicated supporters of Age UK Milton Keynes, are set to embark on a fundraising journey, walking 25 miles to visit all seven Age UK shops in Milton Keynes in a single day.
The initiative aims to raise vital funds for the organization's Befriending Service, which plays a crucial role in supporting isolated and lonely individuals in the community.
The pair will set out on their journey early in the morning, navigating through the heart of Milton Keynes to visit each Age UK shop, spreading awareness about the organization's mission and the essential services provided by the Befriending Service.
James Bishop said, "Walking 25 miles is not just a physical feat; it's a testament to your strength, determination, and the power of persistence. With every stride, you're not just covering distance, but proving to yourself that you're capable of achieving remarkable feats"
The Befriending Service at Age UK Milton Keynes is dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of isolated and lonely individuals, providing companionship and support to enhance their well-being. The funds raised from this event will contribute directly to sustaining and expanding this crucial service.
