Thankyou to Flow Fit and Thankyou to our volunteers on National Volunteer Week!

Posted on June 1st, 2021

THANKYOU to FlowFit staff who have taken part in the Captain Tom 100 challenge, either walking, running and cycling, smashing their original 100 mile target and finally reaching a massive 249.62 miles collectively

They have raised a magnificent £500, which they have split between Station Drive Surgery and Portcullis Surgery.

This week is national volunteer week and we would like to thank all our volunteers for all their help.

The money raised by flow fit therefore, will be used to support training and support for our wonderful befriender volunteers of our Compassionate Communites Project.

We would like to thank FlowFit for their fund-raising efforts.
