As Chairman of Harborough District Council, I will be taking part in the Market Harborough Park Run in Welland Park, Market Harborough on Saturday 14th September 2019 which starts at 9:00am.

I will be running the 5K race to raise funds and awareness for my Charity for this year – Spectrum. It would be great if you could show your support by sponsoring me in my challenge to complete the course. I shall be running with my Chain of Office pinned to my T-shirt!

“We are very grateful for being chosen to benefit from the current Chairman's chosen Charity and would want to use the money donated to expand our services and reach even more local families who desperately need support. We would like to widen our range of books and equipment in our library and increase the activities available for autism families and carers”.
