Get fitter and take action for Impact in 2023!

With the start of the new year many of us have aspirations to get a bit fitter and become more active! Why not give yourself some motivation and turn this into action by setting a goal and taking on a sporting challenge.

Before Christmas we introduced the idea of community fundraising, where members of our congregation - of any age or ability - can take on challenges or plan an event to help raise much needed sponsorship/funds for Impact. There are lots of organized sporting events out there, which you may wish to take part in, whether walking, running, cycling, swimming or for the uber sporty even triathlons! Whether you’re an absolute beginner or an experienced athlete there’s something at every level.

See here for a list of some of the sporting events in our region. A few of the running events local to York include:

14 May - Rob Borrow’s marathon, Leeds

23 May - Leeds half marathon

10 June - Inflatable course and run, Harewood House, Leeds (2.5k-15k options). For everyone aged 5+

6 August - York Racecourse 10K and 1.5k fun run. For everyone age 3+

There’s lots of others you can join in, or alternatively you may want to set your own challenge and swim 5k in your local pool or walk the Yorkshire 3 Peaks?

We have a Just Giving page you could use for sponsorship. Contact Heidi or Gillian through fundraising@belfrey.org or call 01904 624190 with any questions. Let us know your plans….we’d love to hear from you!
