On the 22nd of April 2018, Justin Smith ran the Virgin Money London Marathon for MACS, a charity supporting children who are born without eyes, or with underdeveloped eyes.
Various local fundraising events have been organised, concluding with a charity meal and head shave at The Prince Albert Pub on Silver Street.
On the 24th of April, the Prince Albert hosted a sausage and mash fundraising meal, which concluded with Yiorgos (widely known as George), the barman, having his head shaved. The evening raised over ยฃ400, with more than this amount yet to be collected from sponsorship.
Justin would like to thank Yiorgos for being a great sport; Steuart Northfield for organising things; the Prince Albert pub for hosting the event, and to Steve of Fresh Approach Hairworkers of Witchford for the shaving!
The running total for MACS so far is close to ยฃ3,000 – and rising.
