FUNDRAISING for BROOKVALE
Following
his sponsored Abseil down Peel Tower near Bury in aid of Mountain
Rescue, Steve Cohen is intending celebrating his 70th Birthday year with
a further challenge - a 400 mile cycle ride. His journey will start
from Rochdale Town Hall on the 18th August and goes via
Morecambe, the Lake District, Hadrian's Wall, Durham, Whitby and the
Yorkshire Dales, back (hopefully!!) to Rochdale Town Hall, 8 days
later. He will
be cycling with two friends and they will be carrying all their gear
in panniers on the bikes. The route involves several thousand feet of
ascent.
Steve
is dedicating the ride to help people with disabilities, and is asking
Jackson's Row members if they are able to sponsor his effort with
donations for the residents of Brookvale with whom our synagogue has
such a close relationship. He says that the knowledge that Jackson's Row
members are supporting his ride will spur him on and help his ageing
legs keep peddling over what is a very demanding route!
An
e-mail will be sent out shortly to members with details of how to make
payments to Brookvale but he will be delighted if anyone wishes to
contact him directly on
07711 344616 or 01706 360124 or steveco1966@gmail.com
