As it’s an important milestone for us this year, we really want to encourage lots of people to get involved to help raise funds for our charity and awareness of youth homelessness in our city.
“We expect this event to be very popular. The atmosphere at all the Run For All events is always incredible, and they cater for runners of all abilities!
“Over the last few years we have had hundreds of people run in various events for us and now we want to make this the biggest year yet to Run for Roundabout.”
