Just Run for Today applied to the Community Asset Fund in February and were awarded £1550 to help them set up their group.

The group arrange local group runs a few times a week and once a month they arrange a family walk where children can be involved. The group support other members to get to the start point if they do not have their own transport and their runs are designed so anyone of any ability can join and go at their own pace.

The group is run by volunteers and they welcome anyone to come and take part in the runs and volunteer for the group. Just Run for Today recently celebrated their 100th run! And some of their members took place in their first ever Park Run. The funding requested is being used for refreshments, high visibility jackets and to be able to put other runners through their run leader qualification so that they can lead the runs.


The Community Asset fund is available to grassroot community groups whose project will benefit the recovery community in BwD.
