Thanks for taking the time to visit our Wolf Run JustGiving page.
Twenty five of us have joined together to raise money for the Tree of Hope charity, but more specifically for little Leon Thompson. You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. That is just the start and your donation can really help us smash this goal.
We will be doing the Autumn Wolf Run on 03 September 2017 which is a 10km wild run!!
The Wolf Run is Wild Running - a unique combination of three kinds of off-road running: mud runs, trail runs and obstacle runs. The only Wild Run in the UK, it’s a hardcore 10k run across raw natural terrain, including open ground, woodland, lakes & thick mud.
Running in a pack we’ll tackle a series of tough obstacles - both man-made and natural - designed to test our mental & physical strength, skill and stamina. We will run, climb, jump, wade, crawl and swim through a course designed to challenge us on every level.

About Leon's First Steps
The SAW Health&Fitness pack will be running, jumping, crawling and swimming to help Leon walk. Leon is the son of a team member and he was born prematurely at 29 weeks and 3 days weighing under 3lbs. He suffered a brain haemorrhage and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at 16 months old. His family need to raise £80,000 towards a surgery called Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) which permanently cuts the nerves that cause spasticity. He will also require physio equipment and intensive physiotherapy following the surgery. This is Leon's best chance at being able to walk, free of pain, either with equipment or unaided. PLEASE HELP LEON TAKE HIS FIRST STEPS.
