Mark Bebbington raises money for Disability Positive

Mark Bebbington raises money for Disability Positive

On Friday 21st June, Guinness World Record Holder Mark Bebbington will begin his latest fundraising challenge, running 5km in every English County (48 in total!).

Mark, who is Head Coach at New Era Boxing in Northwich, is taking on the challenge to raise money for Disability Positive and Cardiac Risk in the Young (C-R-Y).

He was inspired to support Disability Positive after getting to know about our work through our Communities and Engagement team.

With a support team following, Mark will start in Cornwall and work his way through the country to eventually finish in Cheshire. He is hoping his hard work will raise a total of £12,000.

We’re so grateful to Mark for choosing Disability Positive as one of his charity beneficiaries, and we can’t wait to cheer him on this Friday.

If you would like to sponsor Mark, you can find his Just Giving page here.
