Several colleagues from a Bath home, their friends and family members will be taking on the brutal Tough Mudder challenge to raise funds for the home.

Nine Colleagues, Amy Jacobs, Emily Millns, Cosmin Dranceanu, Aniz Damani, Fleur Preedy, Jake Grant, Louise Gascoigne, Milly Yiend and Anne Head all work at MHA Stratton House and will be joined by friends and family to support them in the Tough Mudder challenge.

The challenge will take place at the Badminton Estate in South Gloucestershire on the 16th of August.

Tough Mudder creates hardcore obstacle courses in either a 5k or 15k format designed to test your all-around strength, stamina, and mental grit.

The home is hoping to raise funds for their amenities fund, from which activities and trips are arranged for the residents.

A JustGiving page has been set up, where almost £600 has already been raised.

Harriet Law, administration manager, who took part in the challenge last year said: “Having done the challenge last year and the support we received, we decided to give it another go.

“We managed to get nine staff members on board this time around as opposed to five last time.

“We are hoping to raise as much funds as possible for our residents, to enable them to live later life well.

“Me and a few of my colleagues are hoping to be there on the day to offer our support, weather permitting.

“The team are very confident they will smash the challenge, and we can’t wait to see them in action on the day.”
