Local Charity Living Sport announced as the new charity partner of Great Eastern Run, under new organisers Good Running Events.
Good Running Events are delighted to announce that they are now working with local charity Living Sport.
Living Sport is an independent charity focused on improving the health, happiness, and well-being of the people of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. They work collaboratively with partners and communities to support more people to be active in a way that works for them.
“Our vision is of lives and communities improved by people being more active.”
As 1 of 43 Active Partnerships in England, Living Sport is part of a unique network of organisations supported by Sport England. It allows us to be the local delivery partner for their national strategy, “Uniting the Movement”, connecting us to wider conversations and bringing a wealth of knowledge from across England.
We focus our work on championing inclusivity, addressing inequalities, and removing barriers, to support communities in the geography we work in.
Living Sports’ CEO, Samantha Hyde said
“We are delighted to have become the latest charity partner for the Great Eastern Run and are excited to be working with Good Running Events. We are so grateful to our incredible team of runners who will be proudly wearing their Living Sport vests on the day. We can not wait to cheer them on as they take on the 13.1 miles around Peterborough. This is a particularly important event to us as many of our runners are from the local community and have been previously supported by Living Sport, they are now working closely to support us by fundraising to ensure the work we do can continue to reach as many individuals as possible.”
Aaron Murrell, Director of Good Running Events quoted,
“It is fantastic to have Living Sport on board as an official charity partner of the Great Eastern Run. We’ve been working with the team for a little while now and really positive about the benefits that this charity partnership will bring to the region through the fundraising that will be taken on by the runners. We are looking forward to seeing Team Living Sport on the start line at the Great Eastern Run on October 15th!”
