On Sunday 15 October, Conal McDonagh completed the Amsterdam marathon – his first – to raise funds for NICHE’s work. Conal is the son of Alison Grove, NICHE Trustee.
Unable to take part in the run, his partner Gill Monaghan decided to do a ‘plank a day’ for a month to help raise funds. A professional dancer, Gill squeezed in her daily plank while touring in Europe.
Thanks to both for their tremendous efforts and for raising funds to support NICHE’s projects.
