  • Blackheath & Bromley Courier
    Blackheath & Bromley Courier November 2019. President 2019-20. Julian Golding. Editor. Pat Calnan ([email protected]) From 150 Years to Tipping Point? 23rd October 1869. Happy birthday to us! The Club History quotes “Bells Life In London” of Weds October 27th 1869 on the first run of Peckham Hare & Hounds, “The first meet of this Club took place on Saturday, the 23rd inst., at the King’s Arms, Peckham Rye…. The hares… were sent off at four o’clock, and led the “run” through Goose Green, Denmark Hill, Lordship Lane, Dulwich, Sydenham, Forest Hill, and back to the Rye, making a run from nine to ten miles. Time of running, 97 minutes”. Peckham Hare & Hounds became Peckham AC, who became Blackheath Harriers, who became Blackheath Harriers, Bromley, who became Blackheath & Bromley Harriers AC on merging with Bromley AC, who had previously been Bromley Ladies AC, Wigmore Ladies AC and originally Wigmore Harriers. Throw in a number of HQ changes, the Boer War, First World War, Second World War etc etc… it’s been a long journey. Happily the Club birthday fell on a Wednesday Night and those attending our Clubhouse were treated to free beer. We saw some people we had not seen for some time such as Carolyna Haley (nee Jones Baldock) and Mark Colpus, one of the scoring 6 when we won the Senior Mens National Cross Country title for the first time in 1994. John Turner brought greetings from Bill Clapham, who had earlier in the day cycled part of the original course at the age of 89, and from David Johnson who is currently in hospital.

    Sports Fundraising Market Snapsh t 2018 Mass participation sports events provide an excellent opportunity for charities to recruit, engage and inspire people to fundraise for them. Whilst not all charities have their own mass participation events, the majority utilise third party events delivered by ‘commercial’ providers for fundraising activity. The Sports Fundraising Snapshot is our annual review of this market. Which are the biggest events for sports fundraising? Working with our charity partners and ‘justcharity.org’ we have updated our estimate of the UK’s 25 most important mass participation sporting events for fundraising.

  • Read 334 Inspiring Stories
    Inspiring stories from AudioFuel customers Since I've been an audiofuel customer, running has helped me deal with depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Even when I feel low, tired and like I don't want to carry on, listening to audiofuel tracks helps to give me the motivation I need to get out and run. When I run, it helps improve my mood and this in turn helps me to live life to its fullest. ______________________ I lost 3 stone after running to audio fuel pyramid 200 and went on to complete a half marathon having only trained for 10 weeks ! My proudest moment was when I planned to go out for a 3 mile run, got lost and managed to run 5 miles! My first distance larger than 3 miles, and I kept at the same pace. I was so proud of myself! ______________________ Inspiration from Team AudioFuel Page 1 of 79 I'm 62 and have been exercising routinely for decades. However I amped it up with the interval training and not only did I peel off a few pounds, but my energy is great! I love intervals and so does my dog. (I also out ran my 37 year old son, and it inspired him to amp it up too!) ______________________ Having come back from 8 months of injury and operations, all my running has been done to audiofuel, without it I don't think I would be back running 4 times per week. The speed session is slower but I can see improvement, the long runs painfully slow.

  • Fundraiser's 100 Appeal Toolkit
    Fundraiser’s 100 Appeal Toolkit Full of handy hints and tips to help you make the most of your fundraising! CMTUKwww.cmt.org.uk t: 01202 432048 / e: [email protected] @CMTUnitedKingdom Registered charity no. 1112370 Dear Fundraiser, Thank you for choosing to fundraise for CMT United Kingdom. We rely on the support of amazing fundraisers just like you to allow us to continue providing support to those affected by CMT and their families, fund research and educate medical professions on the condition. Our focus: Imagine being diagnosed with a condition that you’ve never heard of, or worse still, one that you’ve seen having a massive impact on other members of your family, and realising you’re heading down the same path. Or seeing your children struggling with problems, and coming to terms that the genes were passed on. Our role is to provide the right support at the right time to ensure that people get the help that they need to come to terms with their condition, to learn to manage it successfully, and to live life to their potential. Why we are the best to deliver our services: No one else can provide the very personal support that we provide, because the charity is run, in the main, by people who have the same condition – we understand exactly what it’s like. Our aims: Ultimately, we know that the only solution to the problems people face is by finding a viable treatment or cure, so research into the condition is a huge priority and is a long term goal.
