Citizens Advice Bureau sign:

16 hour run around the Island planned to raise money for vital local service

Chief Executive of the Isle of Wight Citizens Advice Bureau, Lee Hodgson, has set himself a challenge this summer with the aim of raising money for the local branch during the 75th anniversary of the National Citizens Advice Service.

On 23rd August, Lee will be setting out at 7am and embarking on what he tells us is his toughest and, unfortunately last, physical challenge.

65 miles in under 16 hours
He’ll be attempting to run 65 miles around the Isle of Wight in under 16 hours.

Obviously Lee’s training programme is now in full swing and if you want to follow his progress, he’ll be posting updates from his training diary and video diaries to his Facebook page.

Show your support
Look out for Lee who plans to start his road running training this week. He’ll be wearing his Island challenge t-shirt.
