🚴‍♂️ Challenge Complete – Target Reached!
Congratulations to Frank Tota, parishioner of St George’s and governor at our school, who has successfully raised the final £10,000 needed to complete the St David’s Medical Centre in Nyandoro, Zimbabwe.
In May, Frank cycled over 800 miles from Worcester to Lourdes, raising funds for this life-changing project. On 6 July, he presented the cheque to Agnes Teferi, who will travel to Zimbabwe next month to oversee the completion of the centre.
“I wish to thank everyone who supported my fundraising cycle to Lourdes,” said Frank
