Story

Thanks for visiting the Salford Quays Marks and Spencer TreeAthlon Team Page!

We have all volunteered to run 5km in aid of Trees for Cities on Sunday 5th October.

The blurb on the left tells you a little about the charity, but more specifically in Manchester money raised will go towards supporting new greening projects including the creation of tree-lined avenues and an orchard of trees at Crowcroft Park in Longsight and more urban woodland plots at Cringle Fields Park. They are also looking to continue to build on their work with local schools and community groups.

For some of us this the first time we've ran any more than running to catch the bus so your support would be greatly appreciated!
