Join us for another spectacular running celebration in the heart of Manchester with the AJ Bell Great Manchester Run.
The AJ Bell Great Manchester Run is the city’s original and best-loved running event – over 99% of runners say they’d recommend it to a friend. And in true Mancunian style, it’s a party from start to finish, with a high-energy soundtrack, live music and entertainment zones at every turn – plus, some of the loudest and most enthusiastic local support we’ve seen anywhere in the UK. However, it’s also a testament to the strength and generous spirit of this incredible city, with thousands of charity runners taking on the challenge of a 10k or half marathon each year to raise millions for charity.
Coach Core improves the life-chances of disadvantaged young people aged 16-24 who are not in education, employment or training. Through sports apprenticeships they can access the skills, confidence and knowledge needed to unlock meaningful education and employment opportunities whilst also positively working with communities in real need of sports provision, thereby getting literally thousands of other young people across the UK physically active. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of activity for physical and mental wellbeing. Coach Core programmes have never been more needed.
