This year the third formers of Hereford House chose Marie Curie Cancer as their selected charity. The boys managed to raise an amazing £ 2084.

Peter, ‘To raise money for Marie Curie Cancer I decided to run from Chepstow Castle to Thornbury Castle, a total of 13 miles. Thank you for your support, my run went really well. I finished it in 2 hours and 9 minutes and raised £100 for the Marie Curie Cancer Trust.’

Henry, ‘Heading up towards the top of the mountain, the going got tougher as we climbed loose scree (going back to the ice age!) and we needed a few oxygen breaks, thanks to dad, but we finally made it to the top, at 11:30 am - Beinn an Oir (the mountain of gold) 2600ft. A very big thank you to all my major sponsors – I managed to raise £270 with the proceeds going to Marie Curie Cancer, the charity being supported by my house at school, Hereford House.’
