A nursing home resident who has undergone two knee operations cycled 21
miles on a static machine during a fund-raising week.
Residents and staff at Meadow House nursing home
in Swaffham took part in challenges to raise awareness of multiple sclerosis
and funds for the MS Awareness Trust.
Staff arranged activities for residents, their
relatives and day centre service users.
They ran bingo games, held a raffle, sang
karaoke and held a coffee morning. The main challenge was a static bike ride.
Between them, the residents and service users,
many of whom live with severe physical challenges, cycled 102 miles.
Resident Vanda Norgate, who has recently had two
knee operations, cycled 21 miles.
In total, £500 was raised.
