Story

We are delighted to be taking part in the Bath Half Marathon, for the first time ever!

The Woodworks Project aims to empower people through engagement in meaningful activities, such as woodworking and upholstery, to help maintain wellbeing and promote team working. By joining our team, you will help us to support everyone in Bath & North East Somerset who is experiencing a challenge in their lives, whether from poor mental health, substance addiction recovery, physical or learning disabilities, amongst others.

We are very fortunate that Bath Taekwon-Do is partnering with us to enter a team of runners into the 2020 Bath Half! Both of our organisations share many of the same values. Bath Taekwondo is a local Taekwondo school, which is part of the Professional Unification of Martial Arts (P.U.M.A.) organisation, one of the most respected and forward thinking martial arts organisations in the UK. The school teaches both adults and children, in a fun and friendly atmosphere for the whole family! For more information about Bath Taekwondo, please see their website: http://www.puma-uk.com

We are extremely grateful and want to give a massive thank you to the members of Bath Taekwon-Do who are volunteering to run the Bath Half alongside The Woodworks Project and are supporting the work that we do!

In 2020, we have set ourselves the goal of raising £3,750, which will fund one persons place in our workshop for a whole year!

Want to take on the 13.1 mile challenge for #TeamWoodworksproject? Make your way over to the Bath Half website, where you can sign up at as runner for our team: https://entries.bathhalf.co.uk/ps/event/2020BathHalfMarathon/

We look forward to welcoming you to our team and can't wait to see you all on race day! We will be hosting monthly runner meet-ups on a Sunday morning.

Meet us at the workshop, run with us along the river / canal and afterwards we'll provide everyone with refreshments at the workshop.

Find out more on our Facebook event. Join the TWP Bath Half Team runners group where we will share tips and encouragement in the lead up to the big day!
