What's on at Headway Plymouth this week. - mailchi.mp/6b5ec83c4833/next-week-at-headway-plymouth-6747118
She’s only gone and done it.
In hot hot conditions and with “less than perfect training” (her words), Karen has completed her first mass participation road marathon and what a doozy to start with.
The most finishers in the fastest competitive marathon ever!
We hope you had the most unforgettable day and an experience that will live with you for years to come.
We love this photo - the smile says it all!
Thanks again, Karen - you are a solid gold superstar and the trustees, team, clients and families at Headway Plymouth are so grateful for your efforts.
Rest and recover well.

Just a few minutes to go before our amazing treasurer and trustee, Karen, starts her huge challenge to complete the 2026 TCS London Marathon.
We're wishing her all the very best for what, we know, will be an incredible day full of support, joy, togetherness and probably some discomfort!
Karen has worked so hard, not only to train, but also to raise vital funds for Headway Plymouth.
We cannot express enough our thanks for all you have done as a trustee and fundraiser.
Wishing you a once in a lifetime experience today and a well earned rest afterwards!
Of course, there's still time to donate to Karen’s fundraising effort at:

Food is always fun on Food Is Fun CIC Fridays at Headway Plymouth.
Thank you to Tami, Sean and Jack who supported our clients to make a pasta lunch extravaganza of turkey meatballs, with a fresh tomato sauce followed by a home made apple, pear, peach and oat crumble (with a bucket of custard).
Thanks also to our great friends at FareShare South West who supplied most of the ingredients for today’s feast.
