THE Revd Sue Miles and the Revd David Coppard will be running the Bath Half Marathon on Sunday 13th March to raise money for charity.
The Revd Sue is raising funds for Crosspoint, Westbury, the local drop-in centre. Crosspoint is hoping to use the money raised to set up a counselling project for young people within the area of mental health.
Sue said, “The need for these services in our area is becoming more obvious as NHS services are diminishing. Crosspoint believe that they can help young people who are finding it hard to cope with the pressures of modern life and find they have nowhere else to go.”
Donations for Crosspoint can be made using the following link: crowd funding.justgiving.com/ susan-miles-1
The Reverend David Coppard, Minister of Westbury Methodist and Westbury United Reformed churches, can often be seen cycling, walking, and running in and around Westbury, often accompanied by his dog Poppy.
In early April he will be 50 and he is raising sponsorship for the aid relief charity Christian Aid. For over 65 years the charity has worked where the need is greatest, regardless of religion nationality or race. Christian Aid has one single aim – to end poverty.
