All the usual on-course competitio­ns will be on offer, please come along and support this event and The Wellspring.

The recent warm weather has led to an increase in the number of people rough sleeping in Stockport.

We often think of homeless people being cold on the streets but recently the opposite has been just as concerning, lots of people have been getting burnt in the sun and have been dehydrated.

The Wellspring has received lots of donations of sun cream which have been given out to people who are outside all day and night. Thank you to everyone who has donated.

The Hatters Half Marathon takes please in Stockport on Sunday, September 2, beginning and ending at Edgeley Park in Stockport.

Wellspring places in the event are free in return for fundraisin­g for The Wellspring. We don’t set any of our runners a fundraisin­g target.

If you would like to run and fundraise for The Wellspring please email your full name, address date of birth and phone number to thewellspr­ing@ btconnect.com.

It was brilliant on Friday, July, 13 to welcome Grassroots recruitmen­t to The Wellspring ,who provided five staff members to volunteer for the day.

Having support from local businesses who choose to support The Wellspring with corporate volunteeri­ng is so positive, it really makes a great difference.

If you are interested in volunteeri­ng either as a business or an individual then please get in touch on 0161 477 6344 or apply to become a volunteer on our website www. thewellspr­ing.co.uk.
