88-year-old Chris Bradley from Somerset West is embarking on a 700 kilometre quest to help raise funds for his daughters safe house. Thárros Family Centre burned down in 2021. Now, Bradley is walking the distance to help his child help vulnerable children.
88-year-old Chris Bradley is a man with a plan. The plan being to walk 700 kilometres in aid of Thárros Family Centre, to raise much needed funds for the restoration of the home after a devastating fire. Making this cause extra special is that he won’t only be helping children in need, but walking for his own daughters’ passions and dreams.Thárros was founded by Therese Sampson, Bradley’s daughter, in 2016.
But in September 2021, the fire broke out. Thankfully, no staff or children were injured but the building suffered extensive damage. The safe house was forced to close. Thárros’ main source of income is through self-generated projects, fundraisers and donations.On a phone call discussing “THE WALK”, Bradley’s daughter questioned; “Well, what’s the difference between 88 and 90?”.
He will now walk the equivalent distance in and around his area. The last 100 kilometres will be meted out closer to Thárros with the final step ending at their doorstep. Chris will walk a minimum of 10 kilometres per day, accomplishing the entire walk within three months. Mr Bradley, you are a rockstar and we couldn’t be prouder to share your story with the people of Cape Town. Help reach the R100 000 goal for Thárros
