🚨‼️ £1️⃣6️⃣,0️⃣6️⃣2️⃣ ‼️🚨

We can officially announce that the total amount raised on the David Lethaby celebration day at the club was an incredible £16,062.‼️

Pictured is the hand over of the funds to the British Heart Foundation who we’re sure will put the money to great use ❤️

Massive thank-yous from MCC go to everyone that supported the event, from the spinning sponsors to anyone who donated a raffle/auction prize and everyone who attended and supported on the day.

There are too many people to mention individually but none of it would have been possible without the hard work and dedication of Suzanne Richards who not only had the idea for the celebration and organised it with her team of helpers, but also found time to spin for 12 hours straight on the day 🚴🏻‍♀️🥵👏🏼

Lastly, we’d like to thank the Lethaby family for allowing us to hold this tribute in honour of a great man who is missed so much by so many.

Thank you ❤️

We are delighted to have been asked to host another county pathway match at the club tomorrow.
