Shrewsbury School Sponsored Walk Total Reaches £100,000

28 Mar 2017

Having originally set ourselves an ambitious target of raising £70,000 from our Whole School Sponsored Walk for our youth club in Everton, Shrewsbury House (‘the Shewsy’), we were thrilled when we were able to announce in October that the total had reached £80,000. Now, thanks to the fantastic support of the School Governors, that figure has grown to a magnificent final total of £100,000.

This is double the amount raised by the last Sponsored Walk in 2011.

“Club members and staff have been completely overwhelmed by the amount raised,” said Dave Brereton, Senior Youth Worker at the Shewsy. “This funding is a lifeline for the young people of Everton. It has given all of us at the club a massive boost to morale and to what we are able to plan for the immediate future. Thank you!”
