The NHS in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is delighted to have teamed up with parkrun UK to celebrate the NHS’s 75th birthday with ‘parkrun for the NHS’.
Backed by the tennis star Sir Andy Murray, people across the UK are invited to ‘parkrun for the NHS’ at parkrun events on Saturday 8 July and junior parkrun events on Sunday 9 July.
If you haven’t heard of parkrun before, it’s a 5km run/jog/walk, every Saturday at 9am in your local park. Organised and run by volunteers, it’s a great way to start running, to complete a Couch to 5K programme, or even get a feel for what an organisation run or “race” feels like. Head over to the website using the button below to find out more about it and where you can find your local parkrun.
