On Monday of this week, 31st August The Needles Pub very generously ran a family fun day.

Mel and Trev from the pub are very supportive of Derbyshire Children's Holiday Centre and have been raising funds for the last couple of years through events, raffles, tombolas and like on Monday, a family fun day.

The event raised an amazing £650! That’s a staggering amount that means so much to us and will help to directly support holidays for disadvantaged children at our centre in Skegness.

Thank you Mel, Trev and everyone at The Needles pub for everything you’re doing.

🇬🇧 HE’S HOME—BUT HE ISN’T HOME YET! 🇬🇧

After crossing Poland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and France, Grzegorz “Greg” Pacho has just stepped off the ferry at Dover and onto British soil.

What an emotional milestone—but Greg still faces an enormous homeward stretch to Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre in Skegness.

Of his extraordinary 1,250-mile challenge:

✅ Approximately 1,045 miles completed
✅ Around 40 marathons covered
✅ Five countries crossed before reaching the UK
✅ Roughly 84% of the journey completed

But there are still around 205 miles to go—the equivalent of nearly EIGHT more marathons.

Greg registered this challenge with Guinness World Records and has been following its required processes. His final record status will be subject to Guinness verification, but whatever the official outcome, what he has already achieved through pain, exhaustion, damaged feet and sheer determination is phenomenal.

He has made it back to Britain. Now we need Britain to help carry him home.

Please leave Greg a message of encouragement, share his story and donate if you can. Let’s make sure he knows that people are waiting for him in Skegness—and that every painful mile is helping children who have experienced hardship.
