MP Helen Morgan Goes The Extra Mile North Shropshire’s MP is lacing up her running shoes as she prepares to take part in the Oswestry 10k. Donate To Helen The event takes place on Sunday October 12th and will see Helen Morgan MP join hundreds of runners completing the course in support of causes close to their hearts. Speaking ahead of the race, Helen said: “I’m really pleased to be able to take part to raise funds for Hope House. It’s an amazing charity that does vital work supporting children with life-threatening conditions and their families. “The training is going well so far, and I’m hopeful to finish the race with a good time while also reaching my fundraising target. Please donate as much as you can!” Helen raised more than £1,000 when she completed the race in 2023. She has had little time to train this year due to her busy diary, but has now committed to running the course which starts on Church Street, heads through Morda towards Trefonen before returning to the town centre. A Moving Reminder Head of fundraising Alison Marsh, said: “We are delighted that Helen has chosen to support Hope House Children's Hospices whilst taking on the Oswestry 10k. “This is an especially meaningful event because the route takes you right past Hope House itself, it will be a moving reminder to our runners of why every step makes a difference. “Thanks to Helen's support, we can be here to help local children with life-threatening conditions live their best lives.” Support Helen Donations to Helen’s fundraising efforts can be made via Just Giving Donate Here Manage Cookie Preferences
