Run for The Grand Appeal or Cots for Tots in one of the longest-established and most popular city-centre race events in the UK!

Story

Our daughter Ava spent her first week in NICU at St Michaels hospital after suffering a neonatal stroke. The care we received was fantastic and Cots for Tots who are supported by the Grand Appeal, provided a room for me to stay in which was just across the road from the hospital. This meant I could stay close to my partner and daughter, this made such a difference to us all in that first week and I cannot thank them enough. They are a fantastic charity helping so many. 

It is Ava's 1st birthday on the day of the race, so it will be a great way to celebrate and raise money!
