Sunday 8th July 2012 marks the 12th anniversary of the nation’s favourite British 10K London Run and Friends of TCF are looking for runners to participate in this challenge. Whether you’re a pro or a first-timer, don’t hesitate to join – you’ll be supporting education for the most underprivileged of children in Pakistan!
The atmosphere will be electric with thousands of runners raising millions of pounds for their favourite charities. We are requesting each runner to raise a minimum £250 each. You can achieve this simply by asking 25 people to donate only £10! Why not team up with a few friends?
Our target of raising £10,500 will go towards supporting one TCF primary school for the current academic year which is the equivalent of supporting 13 children’s education from primary to secondary school – that’s 11 years!
If you want to join our team of runners representing Friends of TCF, please complete and email the 2012 British 10K Form today. A registration fee of £35.35 will be required to secure your place.
We will have a unique prize for the individual that raises the highest amount! Contact us and receive an A-Z guide of fundraising ideas.
