People of the Borders to walk and run themselves proud for Sport Relief

14th January, 2016

The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile is back – and it’s coming to Bowhill House and Country Estate.  The attraction is set to host its third Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile on Sunday 20^th March, and needs local people to come together and make themselves proud by entering now at www.sportrelief.com.

Local heroes from the Borders will be walking and running themselves proud during the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile to raise life-changing money for Sport Relief 2016.

The colourful, cheerful and eager Milers will be doing their bit to make a difference to people living across the UK and the world’s poorest communities.

Setting off from the Estate’s Courtyard, the Bowhill Mile will take in the breath-taking countryside sights – perhaps even some wildlife – of Bowhill Estate and is set to be an incredible event.

Sarah Peat, Customer Service Manager at Bowhill House and Country Estate, said: “The Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile in Bowhill is here and it’s your time to walk or run yourself proud. From little ones with their mums and dads, to runners up against the clock there’s something for everyone to make themselves feel proud on this special day.”

Sport Relief is back from Friday 18th to Sunday 20th March 2016 and there are more ways than ever for you to take part, change lives and feel proud. Whether you get sponsored to enter an event at the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Games or fundraise with friends and family at home, work or school, you’ll help people living incredibly tough lives. In fact, half of all the money raised by the public is spent right here at home in the UK, with the other half used to make a difference in the world’s poorest communities.
