On 29th June, a group of amazing local professionals from the BNI Five Valleys Networking Group will take on the Gloucester 10k, all to raise vital funds for Allsorts.
These inspiring individuals are not just running for the finish line, they’re running to help create inclusive, joyful experiences for children with additional needs and their families right here in Gloucestershire.
Allsorts proudly holds the charity seat at the BNI Five Valleys group and we’re blown away by the support from members who’ve chosen to go the extra mile to raise funds and awareness.
Katie O’Grady, Virtual Assistant, said:
“I signed up the run the 10K for Allsorts to give myself the motivation to get back to running and training after a very hard few years. My partner passed away last April from a rare sarcoma, and he had a year of intensive treatment before that. It was an incredibly difficult time and I didn’t have time or the headspace for training. I am now challenging myself to get back to my hobbies and things I enjoy for both my physical and mental health. I signed up to the 10K give myself the motivation to get out running. The 29th of June would have been our anniversary so it will be lovely to do something positive on that day. I’m looking forward to my first event in years and running it for Allsorts with the team from BNI Five Valleys!”
