Local funeral director runs to victory
Jamie Richards of Pendle Funeral Services raised just over £8000 for The Macmillan Cove Appeal after running the London Marathon.
Novice runner, Jamie initially set a target of £2000 but more than quadrupled that.
Commenting, Jamie Richards said: “I’m honoured to have run for the Macmillan Cove Appeal, a charity that means so much to me –and my family- and will have so many benefits for the people of Cornwall. A massive thank you to all of those people from the local community and businesses for their overwhelming support throughout.
“It was a magnificent yet really tough experience from start to finish. In our profession we regularly witness the tragic effects of cancer and that is why I’m so passionate about supporting The Cove, which will be such a positive building for Cornwall.
