On Sunday, 5th May 2024, Lee Gibson and his son, Luke, laced up their running shoes and headed to Rother Valley Country Park. There, they embarked on a 10k run around the park’s picturesque lakes to raise money for a charity that has become close to their hearts.
In July 2023, Julie Gibson—a beloved wife, mother, and friend—tragically lost her life in a traffic accident. Overwhelmed by grief, the Gibson family found solace and support through the charity "Hope," which helps families cope with the loss of loved ones due to traumatic events.
To express his gratitude, Lee chose to honor Julie’s memory in a meaningful way. The date of the run held special significance—it marked what would have been his 35th wedding anniversary with Julie. Lee and Luke were joined by other members of their support group for the run, while family and friends, including daughters Beth and Alice, came out to cheer them on.
Originally aiming to raise £500, Lee’s heartfelt endeavor has already raised £1,515. Donations are still welcome for those who wish to contribute to this worthy cause.
