Congratulations to everyone who took part in this year’s Spring Sprints Galas and thank you to everyone who helped out in whatever capacity. There is an enormous amount of work involved with organising these gala and so it is always a pleasure to see the galas run smoothly and those involved achieving their own personal goals and successes.
