Running for a Cause 

The chosen charity for this race is Holding On Letting Go. They provide bereavement support for children, young people and their families. Since the adults around them are also grieving, children can often feel unable to express their feelings or talk about their loved one or their sadness. Holding On Letting Go works very closely with families and carers to support the whole family unit before or after the death of someone close.
