Karen Henderson Legacy Fund

Whilst we have been training for the Tour de 4 charity cycle in September, the works of Make 2nds Count continue. All the activities funded by The Karen Henderson Legacy Fund are in a good place. 👍

The Edinburgh Tea and A Chat group continue to meet at Morningside Parish Church every 2nd Tuesday of the month, hosted by the lovely Lorna MacNaughton, with 38 from the M2C community being part of their WhatsApp group:

“Whether I want to moan or need a laugh, Tea & A Chat in Edinburgh is a warm and welcoming space to get advice and share knowledge with friendly, supportive women” ☕️🙏🍰

And the second 2nds Together Retreat took place last month in Cardiff where 15 ladies had a wonderful few days with a surprise or two along the way courtesy of Karen’s Legacy Fund 😀

“Oh my goodness, that was such a sweet, thoughtful thing to do”

You are most welcome ladies. Next retreat in Northern Ireland . And an update on our online yoga sessions with Yvonne from Birdsong Yoga Physio coming soon.

The KHLF already have participants registered for the Blue ride so if you fancied joining us or just doing your own thing for Karen’s Legacy Fund that would be great, please just let us know. 🚴‍♂️🚴🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

Well done Carolyn on completing the Newport Marathon on Sunday and for raising the amazing sum of £871.25 (correct as we go to press) for Karen’s Legacy Fund 🥳👏🎉👏

Not the first time Carolyn has done a marathon in honour of her cousin Karen and at 26.2 miles i am sure it never gets any easier. What s great supporter and what a great effort. 🏅⭐️🏅⭐️

A fantastic achievement and a massive thank you from all at the Karen Henderson Legacy Fund. 🙏❤️🙏❤️

If you are inspired by Carolyn’s efforts or just have thoughts of your own fundraising activity that would be great and we’d love to hear from you .

Last time out we were updating you all on our 2026 funding commitments to Make 2nds Count for our wellbeing activities 💝🧘‍♀️☕️🕯️

So now our attention turns to fundraising this year and we all very much hope you will be able to support Karen’s Legacy Fund in some shape or form this year 🙏

First up Karen’s cousin Carolyn is doing the Newport Marathon on Sunday 19 April to help raise funds. Not the first time she has done this type of thing, you may remember Carolyn doing the Edinburgh marathon 5 years ago…… what a supporter and what a STAR. If you are interested in sponsoring Carolyn I attach a link to her justgiving page…… good luck Carolyn and thank you 👍

This year we will have representation in both the Edinburgh and potentially Glasgow Kiltwalks aswell as Chris Hoy’s Tour de 4 in September which we are delighted about and more info will be posted here on how you can sponsor our efforts in all these events. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️

And if you would like to take part in the Kiltwalk or Tour de 4 or do any other of your own fundraising events that would be great, please just send us a message so we know what you are up to and we can see how best we can support you👍😀👍😀

As ever your support is greatly appreciated 🙏Wishing you all a lovely Easter 🐣
