Comic Relief Fun Run at Waltham Forest College

Staff and students representing many departments from Waltham Forest College took part in a range of activities to raise money for Comic Relief on Red Nose Day, Friday March 13.

The 20-strong group of fundraisers set off from the College steps at 11:30, they ran, jogged and walked the 1 mile distance to the College’s CafĂ© Horizon located in Lloyd Park. The main hall was a hive of cash-generating activities which included ‘Beat the Goalie’, ‘Rowing Challenge’ and ‘Have a Bash at Drumming’. Delicious Red nose cakes were baked by catering students and students with learning difficulties and disabilities.

Jonathan Constable, the College Enrichment Manager, who led the team responsible for co-ordinating the event, said ‘It’s great to see so many students and members of staff taking part in these fundraising activities’. The College expects the amount raised by the end of the day to exceed £400.
