NICRO Fundraising
South African women in London take a leap for charity!
Jenine Steenekamp of the NICRO UK TRUST, challenged all ladies with a heart for South Africa to enter the annual Hydro Active 5km Women’s Challenge, which took place in Hyde Park London on the 16th September. This year 15,000 people entered the event.

| 44 participants joined in the fun in aid of NICRO, which was generously sponsored by Nando’s. |
The weather turned out to be ideal for the race; very cloudy with a light breeze and the 44-strong NICRO team looked the part in their white NICRO UK Trust t-shirts, sponsored by a SA shop, Bizzy B’s.

Seffricans strutting their stuff! |
According to organizer Jenine they had a great time, walking, running and huff-puffing away at their own pace for a safe South Africa! |
The husband of one of the participants volunteered to be the official photographer and took some lovely snapshots.
|
| The end is in sight! |
The Vikings or the Bavarian invasion??? |
The well deserved rest and Nando’s free lunch in Hyde Park after the gruelling race |
After the race all the Seffricans gathered with their friends and relatives at the Nando’s tent to enjoy a well deserved free meal, relax and make new acquaintances. Husbands and children came along to cheer the girls on and enjoy a great family day in the park! They will certainly do it again next year!
