The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile is back for 2016 and it’s coming to Newport on Sunday 20th March.
The town is set to host its 3rd Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile at Seaclose Park and needs local people to come together and make themselves proud by entering now at www.sportrelief.com.
Local heroes from The Isle of Wight will be walking and running themselves proud during the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile to raise life-changing money for Sport Relief 2016.
Setting off from Seaclose park the Mile will take in the sights of the River Medina and is set to be an incredible event.
Alec Broome, Sports Development Officer for the Isle of Wight Council said:
“The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile in Seaclose park is here and it’s your time to walk or run yourself proud. From little ones with their mums and dads, to runners up against the clock there’s something for everyone to make themselves feel proud on this special day.
“During the last Sainsbury’s sports relief mile in 2014 over 200 runners turned out to take on the 1, 3, or 6 mile course and raised over £3000 in the process, it would be great if we could better that this year.”
Sport Relief is back from Friday 18th to Sunday 20th March 2016 and there are more ways than ever for you to take part, change lives and feel proud. Whether you get sponsored to enter an event at the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Games or fundraise with friends and family at home, work or school, you’ll help people living incredibly tough lives. In fact, half of all the money raised by the public is spent right here at home in the UK, with the other half used to make a difference in the world’s poorest communities.
Entry is £7 per adult, £3 for children under 16. Family entry for 2 adults and 2 children is £17.
