💛 What a day! What a team! 💛
We did it! 🎉
A huge thank you to everyone who took part in the Great Northern Mud Run at Bramham Park as part of Team Bridge Project.
From climbing obstacles and crawling through mud to encouraging one another every step of the way, this wasn't just about crossing the finish line – it was about teamwork, determination and coming together for a cause that matters.
We're incredibly proud of every single member of our team. Whether you ran the full course, supported from the sidelines, volunteered or donated, you helped make this event such a fantastic success.
Your encouragement, generosity and community spirit help us continue supporting children, young people and families across our local area. ❤️
A special thank you to everyone who came along to cheer us on – hearing your support gave us the extra push we needed (especially through the muddy bits!).
Take a look at our amazing team – tired, muddy, smiling... and very proud! 📸
Thank you for being part of this journey. We can't wait for the next challenge together!

You don’t have to be an athlete to take part.
The Great Northern Mud Run isn’t about speed or a perfect result. It’s about trying something new, supporting each other and simply having a good time together.
Running, obstacles, laughter, a bit of mud and plenty of team spirit. It’s not about how fast you finish, but about doing it together.
Join Team Bridge Project Tadcaster and be part of the day. It’s an experience you’ll want to talk about 💛

A little about those who make Bridge Project Tadcaster: Gary Bentley

Today we want to introduce you a bit more closely to our colleague Gary. He has been with us for a year now (since March 2025), and in that time he has become someone who can always be relied upon, both by the team and the young people who come to us.

Here are a few facts about Gary and his “superpowers”:

- Experience and Knowledge:
Gary has been involved in youth work for over 30 years. Despite this vast experience, he continues to learn and is currently balancing his full-time job with a PhD.

- Master of Organisation:
If an event of any scale needs to be organised to the highest standard — he’s the one. His organisational skills are a true pillar for our project. A great example was the Total Warrior sports event for children and their parents last year, which went brilliantly thanks to his precise preparation.

- A Man Who Knows How to Listen:
Gary talks a lot with teenagers, helping them navigate difficult life situations or personal questions. The kids know that if they find themselves in a tough spot, they can always talk to him and find sincere support and a kind word.

- About What Matters Most:
Faith became a central part of Gary’s life at the age of fourteen. This is what continues to inspire him; in his spare time, he writes and self-publishes Christian devotionals and study guides for home groups.

- Family and Leisure:
At home, he is joined by his wife Liz, their three grown-up children, and a dog. In his free time, Gary enjoys hill walking, watching rugby and comedy, or visiting Italy as often as possible.

We are very glad to have such a reliable and thoughtful person in our team. ❤️
