  • Sports Snapshot
    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. Collectively we estimate this group of events enabled charities to raise more than £135M last year.

Purpose of report 1.1 To outline to the Cabinet Member the proposal for new contract between the Council and Nova International following the completion of the current contract to deliver the Great South Run after the 2020 event. 2. Recommendations 2.1 That officers are authorised to enter into negotiations with Nova International to continue to hold the Great South Run in Portsmouth with a new contract in order to retain this iconic event in the city. 3.

Brendan went on to compete in three Olympic Games and became European and Commonwealth Champion at 5,000 and 10,000m plus a World Record Holder. During his time as an athlete competing at the top level of the sport he ran in the Round the Bays event in Auckland, New Zealand, and decided to bring the concept back to his native North East. The first Great North Run, the original Great Run, was staged in 1981. Since its first staging when 10,000 runners took part, it has grown into the world’s greatest half marathon and the UK’s biggest running event with 57,000 runners annually. In 2014 the Great North Run became the first event in the world to be officially recognised by the IAAF for achieving the milestone one millionth finisher.
