🧡 Join Team MDSA – Run for Anna's Hope! 🧡

Every step and every pound makes a difference

On Sunday 11th October 2026, Manor Drive Secondary Academy will once again be taking part in the Anna's Hope 5K Fun Run as part of the AEPG Great Eastern Run – and we want YOU to be part of Team MDSA!

Why are we fundraising?

At Manor Drive Secondary Academy, we believe that a strong community is one that stands together when others need it most. Every day, children and families face the devastating reality of a brain tumour diagnosis. Anna's Hope is there to provide specialist rehabilitation, emotional support and life-changing care, giving families hope during the most difficult times of their lives.

By fundraising, we are doing more than raising money—we are changing lives. We are teaching our students that kindness, compassion and community can have a real and lasting impact. Every donation, every step and every participant shows that together we can achieve something extraordinary.

Last year, Team MDSA raised almost £2,000, proving what our school community can accomplish when we come together. This year, we want to go even further. Together, we can give hope, create opportunities and show that the MDSA community doesn't just talk about making a difference—we make it happen.

Can we beat last year's total? Can we raise even more for this fantastic cause? With students, staff, parents, carers, friends and families all getting involved, we know we can!

Let's come together once again, wear our MDSA colours with pride, have fun as a team, and help give hope to children and families who need it most.

Together, we can make every step matter. 💙
