Hundreds raised for London Marathon effort

A bid to fulfil a Quarrington woman?s lifelong dream is a step closer thanks to a day of indulgence and pampering.

Julie Spencer has won a place to run in next year?s London Marathon for domestic violence charity Refuge, a charity close to her heart, and to do so she needs to raise more than ?1,000. To give herself a good headstart, she organised a fundraising Pamper Day at The Source church hall in Sleaford last weekend.

The event lived up to its headline of ?three hours of pure indulgence? with treatments including crystal healing, Indian head massage, hair pin ups, Reiki, Hopi ear candles, spray tans, eyebrow threading, Marvelscara, massages and much more, with a range of handmade crafts, cards and jewellery, books, CDs and a raffle.

Julie said: ?The day went really well and I raised ?471 which is great, there?s only about another ?500 to go.?

So far through online donations and the proceeds from the pamper day, Julie has raised more than ?760 towards her fund raising total so is well on her way to reaching her target of ?1,300.

To raise the rest, Julie will be running another indulgent event with a treatment-only Pamper Day on January 27 at the Impact Gym in Sleaford, where owner Greg Darmon will open up the bar upstairs so that husbands and boyfriends can have a drink while the ladies pamper themselves.

Treatments included will be spiritual healing, Indian head massages and many more, running from 12noon to 3pm.
