SGS fundraiser for War Child Media City 5k Relay

Sam Chillingworth is raising money for War Child

Team: Team fundraising for War Child and British Heart Foundation

In memory of Michael

Media City Relay 5k · 24 September 2026

War Child is striving for a world in which no child's life is torn apart by war. We protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children living in war zones across the world. Your support today will help us reach even more children in need.

Story

We are a group of teachers and staff who are lacing up our running shoes to take part in the RunThrough Media City 5k Relay on Thursday 24th September 2026. While we all possess varying levels of fitness, we share one powerful, common goal: running the 5K flat loop through Salford in loving memory of our incredible head teacher, Michael Mullins.

Michael was the heart and soul of our school community, dedicated to inspiring both students and staff every single day. Their passion for education, kindness, and unwavering support left an indelible mark on all of our lives.

To honour his legacy and continue supporting the values they cared so deeply about, we are raising funds for War Child. This incredible charity works in conflict zones around the world to protect, educate, and stand up for the rights of children caught in the crossfire of war.

Every penny raised will go directly toward supporting this deeply meaningful cause, helping to ensure a safer, brighter future for vulnerable children.

Note: We are also running this relay to honor our beloved Head of Maths, who we also tragically lost. If you would prefer to support that cause, please click through to our main Team Page to find the British Heart Foundation link.

We would be incredibly grateful for any donation you can spare, no matter how small. Your support not only keeps us motivated a, but it also helps us celebrate and remember a truly remarkable person who gave so much to our school.
