Cycle for Chloe

June 22nd 2013

Pipers Corner was the final destination for Callum Campbell's fundraising cycle ride from Brighton to Great Kingshill this weekend. The aim of Cycle4Chloe was to raise money for the Hurstwood Park Neurological Unit in Haywards Heath. The Unit saved the life of Chloe Townsend, a pupil in the Upper Sixth at Pipers last year, who suffered serious injuries in an accident on New Year's Eve.

Callum, a friend of Chloe's, arrived at Pipers after leaving Brighton early on Saturday morning and was greeted by a grateful Chloe, her family and friends with a special party. The party was also celebrating the fact that after six months in hospital, Chloe will be going home next week.

The Pipers community had closely followed Chloe's amazing progress and long recovery. A very special and moving assembly was held at school on 7 June so that Chloe could be welcomed back to Pipers and her friends, along with Callum could share her story with the school and talk about their fundraising.

To show their support the girls at Pipers organised a fun run on Friday 21 June as well as a mufti day on Friday 14 June and were delighted to contribute over £900 to the fundraising initiative.
