Rowan’s charity march through March

We are very proud of Rowan I’Anson (SHBRD) who set herself a charity walking challenge in March to raise money for Alder Hey Hospital’s Medicinema appeal. 

Rowan originally challenged herself to walk a total of 50km through March but soon increased the distance to 150km when she realised that she was set to exceed the target early on in the month.

However, Rowan didn’t even stop at 150km, eventually clocking up more than 250km over the month and raising an incredible £700 for the charity. 

The Medicinema is an initiative at Alder Hey to allow children who are inpatients to enjoy the experience of visiting the cinema, giving them a few hours of normality, distraction and fun in their day. 

Congratulations Rowan, you are an inspiration!
