Things got muddy at Woodhall Estate when people of all ages turned out for a day of mayhem at Isabel Hospice’s latest fundraising event.
Hundreds of people braved the elements to take on the family-friendly Muddy Mayhem obstacle course run in conjunction with Letchworth’s Garden House Hospice Care on Sunday, March 24th 2024.
In spite of some foreboding high winds early in the day, the sun eventually came out for the muddy warriors who got stuck in, slipping, sliding and scrambling their way over and around the 5km course for Isabel Hospice.
Claire Melinte, Community & Events Fundraiser said “There was an amazing turnout of Isabel Hospice supporters at this year’s Muddy Mayhem, including an increased number of teams running together and children running the 1km Mini-Mudder which was amazing to see!”
“Together these supporters raised almost £9000 for Isabel Hospice that will go a very long way towards helping us to provide care and support to the patients and their families in eastern Hertfordshire who need us.”
Spectators stood on the sidelines to cheer on friends and family members as they forged through muddy waters, jumped and climbed over obstacles, balanced over beams and kept smiles on their faces throughout it all.
Every person who crossed the finish line received a medal for their mud-tastic efforts.
Claire added: “We’d like to say a huge thank you to our amazing team of staff and volunteers for ensuring the event ran smoothly, Garden House Hospice for inviting us to take part, Woodhall Estate for hosting once again and of course to each and every person who braved the mud this year and got stuck in figuratively and literally – all to raise essential funds to support Isabel Hospice”
