Sign up for Neon fun run!

Local people can still sign up for fun run with a difference and help raise funds for sight loss charity RNIB

There is still time to join hundreds of people from Plymouth and the surrounding area who will be taking part in a fun run with a difference to raise money for blind and partially sighted people.

RNIB (Royal National Institute of Blind People) is hosting a Glow Neon 3k Fun Run from 7pm on Friday 2 October 2015 at Plymouth’s Brickfields Stadium.

Taking place after dark, the run is inspired by the colourful full moon parties of Thailand. Participants can run, walk or even dance their way around the track under the UV lights whilst being sprayed with luminous colourful paint.

RNIB Glow is open to anyone over the age of 10 and is fully accessible to blind and partially sighted participants. Guide runners are available to support any blind or partially sighted people. RNIB can also help to organise guide runners for anyone who needs one. 

RNIB Glow events are taking place across the UK every weekend in October.

It costs £10 to register and participants are asked to raise a minimum of £25 sponsorship (children £10). Visit www.rnib.org.uk/glow to find out more and register.

Every 15 minutes someone in the UK begins to lose their sight, it can happen to anyone at any time. All money raised from RNIB Glow will help RNIB provide practical and emotional support to everyone affected by sight loss.
