π€© Another Fabulous Day at Bendrigg! π€©
We kicked off day 2 with a ride on a very special swing - flying high and loving every second of it! Then it was time to hop into our canoes. πΆ
We sipped hot chocolate from the floating bar and splashed around with ball games, we even managed to see a heron and a curlew before finishing the day with a fun orienteering adventure. π§
So many smiles and memories. We canβt wait to see what day 3 brings! π

πΊ The Danceathon Is Back πΊ
That's right, enough time has now passed and we've all forgotten how we felt 16 hours into last years event, so we thought we would do it all again! π€©
On the 23rd May at 10am the boogie will begin, and it will not stop for 24 hours! π―ββοΈ
Last year we raised an incredible Β£5000 towards the life-changing work that goes on here every single day, this year we would absolutely love to smash that. π
So if you can support in anyway, be it funds, prizes, time to dance, we would be over the moon! π

π¦πGoing Above & Beyond Down Under ππ¦
For years now, Dale Jordan and the whole Thurgoland School have been supporting Paces in so many ways!
From our Flags of Everest campaign to hosting in school activities, not forgetting 2023 when Dale ran a minimum of 5k every single day for the whole year! π€―
Throw in a couple of half marathons, 10ks, fun days and now here we are, with Dales biggest race yet approachingβ¦β¦β¦on the other side of the planet! π
Not to do things by halves, Dale will be tackling the Sydney Marathon in August and all the money he raises will be supporting the life-changing work that goes on here at Paces! π
Dale said:
For nearly 40 years, I have dreamed of running a major marathon. This year, to mark my 40th, I am excited to announce that I will be travelling to the other side of the world, down under, to participate in the Sydney Marathon.
Running the Sydney Marathon will be a huge personal milestone but it is also an opportunity to make a difference as I have chosen to dedicate this run to supporting a charity close to my heart, Paces Charity.
I am pushing on now to achieve my personal goal but at the same time it would be wonderful if I could raise funds for Paces to make a difference to support others achieve their goals.
If you would like to support Dale on his mammoth challenge then please donate what you can and leave him some words of inspiration to keep him going eery step of the way! π

From all of us here at Paces, Thank you so much Dale!
