adidas Women's 5K Challenge

This 5k run is a great opportunity for women to get involved with running and support Age Concern. One of our current campaigns is lobbying for changes to the system for women’s pensions. One in five single female pensioners in the UK now lives in poverty and just 16% of newly retired women qualify for a full basic state pension on their own contributions compared to 78% of men.

You can nominate Age Concern as your charity and £5 of your entry fee will be sent to us. Any money you raise on top can be sent directly to Age Concern and you will be helping to make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable and isolated older people. Let me know when you have registered and we can send you your running vest and sponsor forms to get you started.

We also have limited guaranteed entries available. For one of these places you to need pay a registration fee of £25 (to cover the cost of your place) and to pledge to raise a minimum of £100 in sponsorship.

Please complete the online application form today and run for a brighter future for all women.
