Me and Helen are running the Vitality Big Half on Sunday 6th September to raise much needed funds for Kilmorie Primary School.

The money raised by the Kilmorie Big Half team will fund additional resources for the benefit of the pupils at the school, at a time when school budgets are under even more pressure than usual.

In past years, Friends of Kilmorie (FOK), as the school PTA, has contributed money towards IT, playground and gardening equipment and curriculum books, subsidised the cost of school trips and given each teacher an dedicated amount to spend on their classrooms. Most recently, FOK has donated a substantial amount of money to support the school's Outdoor Play and Learning (OPAL) programme.

Every contribution, no matter how small, can help make a huge difference to the experience of Kilmorie children so please sponsor the team if you can, even if you don't know them personally. Thank you for your support!
