Welcome to the Reading
and West Berkshire Branch
Covering much of Berkshire including Reading, West Berkshire and Bracknell, Includes post codes RG1 - RG20, RG31, RG40 - RG42 and RG45.
Accommodation Wanted
A mature professional gentleman, who has MND/PMA, requires accommodation in the Reading area from Monday to Thursday each week. He works in Shinfield so somewhere on the south side of Reading would be ideal but any location within reasonable traveling distance would be OK.
The accommodation must have wheelchair access and ideally it should be possible to use a wheelchair within the accommodation. Disabled access to a shower/WC usable by a disabled person would be an advantage though the gentleman does have various aids that he could bring with him to help in this area.
Convenient car parking is essential.
A bed-sit with microwave, fridge, sink and storage cupboards or use of a kitchen with these facilities is necessary.
If you think you may be able to help then please contact Keith on 0118 988 1604 (work) or 07979 708584.
Congratulations to Charlie Pearson
Charlie is now just over 1/2 way through the 100-mile extravaganza, having completed the Reading (1 hr 15 mins) and Bath (1 hr 14 mins) Half Marathons and the London Marathon (2 hr 43 mins, a personal best). This just leaves him with the mere trifle (his words!) of running the Edinburgh Marathon (May 25th) and the 22-mile Man Vs. Horse cross-country race at Llanwrtyd Wells (near Brecon) on 14th June! Charlie is still looking for sponsorship so if you are able to help please visit (www.justgiving.com/charliepearson).
