Colourfun run in town
THERE is still plenty of time left to enter this year’s Loros Colourfun Mile.
Glitter, glamour and glowsticks will be in even greater evidence at this year’s event.
Taking a route through Hinckley town centre the event is set to be bigger, brighter, bolder and better than ever before.
Wednesday June 7 is the date for the diary with everyone invited, young and old alike and even your four-legged friends - if they won’t get spooked by all the paint showers.
Loros fundraising lead Laura Betts said: “Our Colourfun Mile is always such a huge hit with our supporters and is definitely an event that is set to put a smile on everyone’s faces.
“This year’s Colourfun Mile will be bigger and better than ever before, as we’ve added a brand new glitter station to the route, as well as an extra special paint rave to complete the event.”
As well as signing up for the run, participants have the opportunity to become part of the hospice’s brand new fundraising scheme, The Hundred Heroes club.
There are 100 members of this exclusive club, with each of them going that extra mile for LOROS by pledging to raise £100 for the hospice.
For the recent Twilight Walk the 100 members needed were found within weeks of the event announcement.
By signing up to The Hundred Heroes club, participants will collectively aim to raise £10,000 for Loros, enough to cover the cost of one of the hospice’s specialist nurses for two weeks.
In return, members will be given VIP treatment at this year’s Colourfun Mile.
The event, which kicks off at 7pm, in Station Road, Hinckley is £15 for adults and £12 for children, with sign-up including a free T-shirt and a pack of powder paint.
