    VSO - Sharing Skills, Changing Lives

    Gallery - Wyvern Christmas Cracker

    Alan Mercer and Sara Hassen are outgoing volunteers, as part of their fundraising they ran the Wyvern Christmas Cracker in Weston-Super-Mare, in Christmas fancy dress. This is a 10km race in the dead of winter! They have set up a Justgiving page to collect in donations, their target is £5,000 and at the time of writing they're on about £400

    "it was an extremely blustery, wet day on Weston-Super-Mare sea front, but we managed to complete our 10k run in one piece - although there are some aching bones today!"
    Sara Hassen

    Submit your photos and testimonies

    We are always on the look out for eye-catching photos and inspiring quotes to illustrate the fundraising section and entice future fundraisers. If you think you have captured the spirit and emotion of your fundraising event and that it would definitely inspire others to raise money for VSO, we would like to hear from you. For a feature on the photo gallery and the testimonies sections, ideally we would like to have a maximum of 10 photos per event with a brief synopsis (for the photo gallery) or a detailed account of the event (about 200 words for the testimonies) including the amount you have raised. To have your event featured, email the events team.
