A massive thank you and well done to the incredible Amy Lewington (or should we say the Incredible Hulk?)! Amy completed the 10k course at the Marvel Winter Wonderwheels event at Dorney Lake in Windsor on 1st December in some very chilly conditions and raised over £200 to support our work.

 

Amy is a BC1 player from Kent who has Athetoid Cerebral Palsy. Amy has been playing boccia for seven years and competing for five. In 2019 she made the finals of the BE Cup. Amy also volunteers as a timekeeper when not competing herself. 

 

Amy said "I wanted to raise money for Boccia England because I really enjoy playing boccia and I know a lot of time and money goes into setting up the competitions. Everyone I've met from Boccia England has been really supportive and encouraging and I wanted to give something back. I’d been looking for a way to fundraise for a while then this came up and it looked like fun."

 

If you’d like to get involved in fundraising for Boccia England please contact our Fundraising Manager, Cally Keetley by emailing [email protected] or giving us a call on 0115 967 8455.
