Hillsborough Run gets underway

A group of fundraisers have started their 96 mile run from Hillsborough to Anfield hoping to raise awareness and money for two childrens hospitals.

Last year the group raised £15,000 for the HJC and HFSG in a similar run, and expect to complete the run on Saturday when they arrive at Anfield.

This year they are running for Alder Hey Childrens Hospital in Liverpool and The Childrens Hospital in Sheffield.

On Saturday, they are also inviting people to 'run a mile with them 'as they meander through Liverpool on the way to Anfield.

Please help to support their fundraising by donating on their Virgin Giving page

Anfield Online wishes all the runners the best for their journey and congratulates them on their fundraising attempts.
