Junior parkrun in Peckham Rye Park

[MarkE]

Many will be familiar with the 5k parkrun events that take place on Saturday mornings in Dulwich Park, Peckham Rye Park, Brockwell Park etc.

We're very excited to announce that a junior parkrun event has now begun in Peckham Rye Park, taking place every Sunday morning, also at 9am. This is targeted at children aged 4-14, though adults are able to run alongside if they like. It is, of course, entirely free, and a great way to help kids keep fit and have fun.

If you have children who'd like to take part, you can register them here: https://www.parkrun.org.uk/register/?eventName=peckhamrye-juniors

We also need a regular supply of volunteers to help keep the event going in its formative weeks and months. If you're at all able to give up 30-45 minutes of your time on a Sunday, we'd love your support! Drop us a line if you can help, at [email protected]. There's a short article here explaining what volunteering for the first time involves - we keep it very simple and provide all the training required!

Thanks so much - we hope to see some of you on the Rye very soon.
