7k Budgie Smuggler Run 2023

Brian Turner is organizing this fundraiser to benefit Mental Health Foundation.

On the 29th of January 2023 we ran 7km around Virginia Water lake in nothing but our budgie smugglers to raise donations and awareness for the charity 'Mental Health Foundation'.

In 2021 we successfully raised 1.5k for Bullys out and in 2022 1.2k for Cancer Research UK.

Our target was £700 which is £100 for each Kilometre we ran. As you can see each year we have surpassed the target with the generosity of our followers, friends and family.

Fighting the cold weather we hoped to raise awareness and donations for a great charity. With your help we more than doubled our target this year and the fund raiser continues to grow!

Thank you for your contribution to this cause which means a great deal to all of us!
