Training support – access to training guides through our partnership with Coopah.
Fundraising Support – You’ll receive support from us all throughout your journey as a Team Missing People runner. You can reach us on the phone, email, Zoom calls when required and access to fundraising materials. You’ll also have access to our exclusive WhatsApp group, where runners support each other with their stories, guidance on training, discuss ideas for fundraising and provide continued motivation up until race weekend.
Your fundraising makes a genuine difference to a charity like ours, just £500 could recruit and train a Helpline volunteer to support 100 people in crisis a year.
