Chesterfield primary school’s 200 mile challenge to raise money for NHS heroes
Staff at a Chesterfield primary school are re undertaking a marathon challenge - to run, walk or cycle 200 miles in just two weeks to raise money for NHS heroes.
Keen to do their bit to support NHS staff and volunteers caring for Covid-19 patients, Inkersall Primary Academy have launched the challenge ' Over 200 Reasons to support the NHS'.
Jo Mercer deputy headteacher said: “As a staff we recognise the amazing job that all the NHS staff at Chesterfield Royal Hospital are doing at this very difficult time.

Staff can either walk, run or cycle a distance and have until half term (Friday May 21) to complete the challenge.
A Just Giving page set up by the school has already raised £1200.
