Running and Fundraising for Advantage Africa on 8th September


It might be over-egging it to call the 'Olney Old Knees' a running club. It's better described as a bunch of (mostly) old blokes who enjoy trying to stay fit followed by a coffee and a chat. Despite the onset of significant birthdays and retirements, they’re intrepidly taking on the 13.1 mile Great North Run on 8th September to raise funds for various charities.

Chris, Andy John and Charlotte from the OOKs and our supporter Andy Evans are all fundraising for Advantage Africa's life-changing work among vulnerable people in East Africa. So if you know any of them - or even if you don't and would like to exercise the powerful ‘kindness of strangers’ by doing so anyway - the links to sponsor them are below:
