The race is now dedicated to the memory of Buxton AC’s former junior Thomas Theyer. The Thomas Theyer Foundation has been set up to provide accommodation for children and young people, with additional needs or difficult life circumstances, at White Hall Outdoor Education Centre so they can enjoy outdoor activities and respite breaks for families. Once again, the profits and sponsorship from the 2018 race will contribute to the work of the Foundation.
