Sport Relief success in the park
Almost 500 seasoned runners and novices alike with big hearts and healthy lungs ran either one, three or six-miles to raise money for Sport Relief, the high profile charity event organised by Comic Relief which uses everything that’s good about sport to change lives for the better.
All the money raised is spent by Comic Relief to help vulnerable people living incredibly tough lives both in the UK and across the world’s poorest countries.
