Happy Birthday George! 🥳🎉

Meet George 💚

George Stafford, originally from Ebchester, is currently living in Greenways Court, Consett.

He will turn 100 on 30th May, and in celebration, he plans to do a somewhat spontaneous sponsored walk. George told us: “I didn’t really plan it, I just woke up one morning and thought that it was something I wanted to do. If it’s good enough for Captain Tom, it’s good enough for me!”

George, who walks independently but with the use of a stick, will walk 1.5 miles from The Travellers Rest back to Greenway Court. The route was chosen for its terrain and will see him walk past a local school that has kindly arranged for the children to cheer him on when he passes by. George said: “I used to be a teacher, it’ll be nice to have the children wave me on. I’ve never been one to just go for a walk, unless it was on the golf course, but it’s been a long time since I did that. I don’t intend on doing any practice – I’m just saving myself for the big day. I love the staff here at Greenways Court, and they’ll keep me right on the day.”

When asked about his reason for choosing to fundraise for St Cuthbert’s, George explained: “My daughter-in-law Judith was cared for a few years ago at St Cuthbert’s Hospice. She spent a fortnight in their wonderful care, and I visited her a few times during that period. It was very impressive with beautiful gardens and a greenhouse. It’s a nice way to give back and I just want to make some money for them.”

It was an absolute delight to meet George ahead of his 100th birthday and hear all about his fundraising plans.
