The second Futures for Kids fun run will take place at the Olympic Park on June 13
Industry charity Futures for Kids (FFK) is hosting its second fun run to raise money for charities which work to provide better lives for children across the globe.
The event will take place on June 13 at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London.
Runners can choose either the full 10k or a 5k option - in normal running attire or fancy-dress - and the event will finish with a party.
Trophies will be presented by Team GB Olympic Gold medallist Christine Ohuruogu.
In honour of fellow-FFK trustee Bernie Connolly, who sadly passed away last year, FFK is introducing the Bernadette (Bernie) Connolly Challenge Cup this year.
The inaugural FFK fun run raised over £20,000, with 158 runners and eight sponsor firms taking part in the May 2018 event.
Following the success of last year, the second FFK fun run aims to raise even more funds and to attract at least 300 runners, and even more sponsorship.
Runners can register here and anyone wishing to raise funds through sponsorship can do so via the the FFK Just Giving page.
