Runners raise £350 for veterans charity

A three-mile run to mark the Armistice Centenary has raised £350 for the Royal British Legion. Organised by Scarborough care provider Saint Cecilia’s and Scarborough Athletic Club’s Walk to Run Group, the event saw runners set off from Saint Cecilia’s in Eastfield and follow a route along Westway and Musham Bank along to Crossgates and back via Cayton Low Road. Saint Cecilia’s Managing Director Mike Padgham said: “We had an excellent turnout of more than 50 and everyone who said they were coming came – despite the rain! “It was great fun, for a great cause and I thank all the runners, the Athletic Club, in particular Gill Glegg and Jayne Graves for supporting the run and the staff at Saint Cecilia’s for all their hard work.”
