“The money raised will go towards new equipment, like a slide, climbing frame, roundabout.

“Unfortunately, earlier this year some of the equipment at the rec failed the safety tests so it was removed and it has not been replaced, we are trying to raise money to buy new playground equipment for the children of the village.

“There are still places left but you must register, we won’t be able to accept runners on the day, we also need volunteers and marshalls to help on the day, call 07762151364 or email [email protected] to register.”
