Virtual Run/Walk/Jog for St Elizabeth Hospice this January!

The Chartered Insurance Institute of Ipswich, Suffolk and North Essex would like to raise funds for a cause close our President's heart; St Elizabeth Hospice.

St Elizabeth Hospice improves life for people living with progressive and life-limiting illnesses. Their work is centred around an individual's needs and providing specialist support wherever it is needed, in the home, in the community or at their hospice.

You can cover 10km however YOU want by the end of January. You can walk, run, cartwheel, skate - whatever works for you. Do it as one 10km, two 5kms or even ten 1kms.

Please note, we are planning on attending a Parkrun each Saturday during January so that anyone who would like to run with others who are taking part can do so! We plan on being at Ipswich Parkrun on the 6th of January, Colchester Highwoods Parkrun on the 13th of January, Bury Nowton Park on the 20th of January and Stowmarket Chilton Fields on the 27th of January. We look forward to seeing you there!
