40 in 40: 40 Park runs in our 40th year.

As some of you may know, I am the operations manager for WomenCentre Kirklees. This year, 2025, WomenCentre is celebrating 40 years of service to the community. Now more than ever, our services are needed and all the donations we receive help ensure that we can keep our work going. We support women in Kirklees, Calderdale and Bradford with mental health and wellbeing through group activities, courses, counselling, music therapy and dance and movement therapy. We support women who are or have experienced domestic violence and sexual exploitation. We also provide specific mental health and wellbeing support for girls and young women.

We have set a target of raising £75,000 over the year to support our essential services. Therefore I am hoping to raise £400 running 40 park runs in our 40th year!
