Our Journey: A New Chapter Begins!
Starting May 1st, 2024, we will proudly continue our mission under a new working name: Runspire Nottingham. This new chapter is incredibly exciting for us! Originally launched as Bulwell Runners, our charity has profoundly impacted the Bulwell community since day one. Our first session, held on February 22nd, 2022, attracted just six people. Since then, Bulwell Runners has grown beyond expectations, now welcoming 20 participants at each of our twice-weekly sessions. The success and positive influence we've had on our members and the broader community have surpassed anything we ever imagined! Our participants are supported by an amazing team of volunteers, including one Level 3 Personal Trainer, six England Athletics-trained Run Leaders, four Walk Leaders, two Nordic Walking Instructor.  We also have Mental Health First Aiders on hand to provide guidance and support to those in need. As we evolve into Runspire Nottingham, we’re excited to expand our reach with new locations and projects aimed at helping people across Nottingham, both young and old. Currently, we offer sessions at Ken Martin Leisure Centre, Harvey Hadden Sports Village, and Victoria Leisure Centre, with more to come! Stay tuned by visiting our website for updates on new locations and upcoming projects. We can't wait to continue this inspiring journey with you!
