On the 31st January, West Berkshire Mencap had a two hour Zumbathon at Nuffield Health Fitness Wellbeing Centre in Newbury.
The event was kindly organised by three local Zumba instructors – Chantal Tyas, Neil Daniel and Abby Head, to help raise valuable funds for West Berkshire Mencap who provide high quality services for local people with learning disabilities and their families and carers.
The Zumbathon had a fantastic turn out with 48 people coming along to take part in the event. The evening was a great success, raising an amazing £501 for West Berkshire Mencap!
Carrie-Anne Ferrie, Fundraising Manager of West Berkshire Mencap said “We are extremely grateful to Nuffield Health for providing the venue and to the three Zumba instructors who gave up their time for free to put on this event for us. Chantal, Neil and Abby worked extremely hard to make this event a success for us and the evening has received really positive feedback from all involved. We are very lucky to have the support of Nuffield Health with our Zumbathons as we couldn’t hold an event like this without such a great venue. We are also grateful to their staff who were so helpful with promoting the event and setting up on the night. We would also like to say a huge thank you to everyone who attended and helped raised such a fantastic amount for our services.”
