posted: 14/01/2010

Signing up to run with Team GHT at the Great Manchester Run is now open. We are very pleased to have 150 places for George House Trust runners at this year's Great Manchester 10km Run on Sunday May 16th 2010.
 

Run with us for our 25th anniversary
We want a big turnout of runners and sponsor supporters this year as 2010 is our 25th anniversary. Sponsor money is gives us vital support for providing quality services to people living with HIV in North West England.
 

Let’s top last year’s £11,000 – target £15,000
Sponsors and team GHT runners last year raised a fantastic £11,000 and our target is £15,000 this year. So please join Team GHT and support us in this very special year!

What we offer everyone in Team GHT:

• Team GHT running vest (special this year for our 25th!)
• Free after run massage from our friends at the Active Health Group
• Training support from Manchester FrontRunners
• Safe bag and clothes storage at the Manchester Convention Centre (GMEX)
• After run party at a city centre venue, including a free buffet

Team GHT Places are open to all runners, including people wanting to run with Team GHT for their first time.
