Great Manchester Run Success
29th May 14
Abbey College Manchester entered a team of volunteers for the Great Manchester Run on 18th May 2014. The Run was 10 kilometres long and started and finished in Manchester city centre.
It was a fantastic day and everyone enjoyed the experience. 6 students did the run as well as 5 teachers from the college. They all wore the special t-shirts designed and printed out especially for the race.
Over £2,000 was raised for the War Child charity. They carry out admirable work to protect children who are living in extremely difficult circumstances worldwide.
The students taking part gained experience of working as a team and a feeling of satisfaction that something special had been achieved for a great cause.
