Ester’s Great Edinburgh Run

Ester is running the Great Edinburgh Run 2017!

I’ll be running 5 miles (Ahhhh!) in the Great Edinburgh Run on the 23rd of April in aid of Citywise. I have been volunteering with Citywise since September, with the aim of helping young people to achieve their potential. It’s incredible to see just how much of a change a few months can make. This is a really worthy cause, so please give what you can, no matter how little!

We’re raising funds for the Citywise ‘Heroes Academy’ summer projects. The money raised at last year’s Great Manchester Run gave 120 young people access to the free holiday club. The play-based curriculum is designed to support their transition from primary to secondary school: learning in disguise as fun! We use the theme of superheroes to help young people discover what it takes to become an everyday hero.  #thecityneedsheroes – could you be one?
