With a city centre start and finish, the AJ Bell Great Scottish Run is a celebration of everything that makes Glasgow truly great: inspiring urban architecture, green spaces, history, music, strength, spirit and, of course, great people, personality and humour. Thousands of runners take part each year to challenge themselves and to raise money for good causes. And Scotland’s friendliest city always delivers on the support front too, with crowds of locals turning out each year to cheer and high-five from beginning to end. Plus there’s medals, finisher t-shirts and bragging rights for all!
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.
