Wine Tasting Event
May 9 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
£35.00
On Friday 9th May join Josh Smith to celebrate his London Marathon 2025 success, with an evening of wine & cheese tasting, laughter and entertainment at Laithwaites, Gloucester.
Josh is taking on the incredible challenge of the Marathon on April 27th, which he wasn’t necessarily expecting to be doing this year…
Linc had a London Marathon charity place, which our participant was unfortunately unable to do, so we knew straight away who to call. Although It was a bit of a surprise and a bit last minute in terms of training, Josh responded with ‘It’s meant to be’ so we knew he would take on the challenge!
With limited time, we got our heads together to discuss the fundraising (as Josh definitely had the training under wraps), so we landed on putting together a celebration event for Josh’s family and friends to enjoy – Especially for Josh who will definitely need a wine or two after the race!
And here are a few words from Josh..
“Ever since I was a kid in the early 90s I’ve wanted to run the London marathon. My dad ran it serval times and I have memories of watching him 30 years ago. Since I started running 10 years ago it’s always been the one I’ve wanted to run and after many failed ballots I’m finally running! This is bucket list stuff for me and to raise some money for a fantastic local charity too is very exciting.
I was lucky enough to meet the Linc team at the Cheltenham Triathlon last year, I had heard of their charity and knew of the good work they do for blood cancer patients and their families in Gloucestershire. They are a local charity that do a lot of fantastic work and I’m honoured to be running for them at the London marathon. Unlike the bigger charities Linc only have one place for the London marathon so I feel privileged to be running.”
The evening will consist of:
🍷 8 wines over the course of 2 hours
🍷 Laithwaites story
🍷 Mystery wines for you all to try and identify
🍷 Cheese & crackers
