Athletics, ESN and Mental Health Society are coming together to host a fun run in aid of SOSAD. The run will start by meeting at the Phoenix building at 3pm. We will have somebody from each society and club organiser there. We will do a short route through north and onto south campus and back to the Phoenix Building. We are asking people to donate just 2 euro to take part. We will have a committee member collecting money there in a bucket. Afterwards we will go to the Rye clubs and societies space which we have booked for some snacks and refreshments. All organisers will promote the run on relevant social media once it has got the greenlight. ESN have got some SOSAD merchandise also which will be good to promote the charity and create awareness.
