The event is also being made possible with the sponsorshi­p of Betty Hadley at Dave's Vacuum Clinic Limited. This is a 5 km event around the town of Bridgewate­r.

Founder and administra­tor Vicky Sovie opened Soul's Harbour Bridgewate­r in 2016 along with chef Cheryl and a few other volunteers. They have been providing hot nutritious meals for free four days a week at 136 Pleasant

St., Bridgewate­r. They feed 20 to 40 people each day who are

struggling to feed themselves/ their families and others who may be feeling loneliness and are just looking for companions­hip. People are always welcome to drop in. Because of COVID-19, Sovie and her volunteers do have restrictio­ns in place, but she is there to help anyone in need, even with supplying winter clothing, jackets, boots, mittens and other clothing needs.
