Run up some cash for charity
10:40pm Monday 5th January 2009 in
CHRISTIAN Aid is challenging people to take part in the Great Manchester Run and raise cash to help some of the world’s poorest communities.
The charity says taking part in the 10 kilometre race is a great way to do something for charity.
The run takes place on Sunday, May 17, in Manchester city centre. Christian Aid has a fixed number of places but runners with their own place can choose to run for the charity.
The charity is looking for volunteers to take part other challenges, including the Hadrian’s Wall trek on July 3 to 5, the London to Paris bike ride on July 22 to 26 and the the Great North Run on September 20.
