Great Manchester Run

Bursting with energy as they took to the streets of Manchester on Sunday the 16th of May, 60 CAFOD runners completed the Great Manchester 10K as the crowds gathered in their thousands to cheer them on.

Televised for the first time this year, the event attracted people from far and wide and the atmosphere around the course was second to none. We'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has given their time and effort for the race and ultimately all that fundraising!

Altogether we hope to reach a target of £6,950. If you'd like to help our runners raise these funds, any donation would be gratefullly accepted. Below are just some of Team CAFOD's justgiving pages

In 2011, there are also Mini and Junior Events for anyone aged 3-14years held the day before the adults race; please contact hhinde@cafod.org.uk for more information

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation.

I'm raising money for my late grandmother's Candlelight fund at CAFOD, which supports both long term development projects and emergency relief in developing countries.
