RVV member runs half marathon in aid of 3 good causes
"I used to enjoy cross country running at school but that was only ever 1 or 2 miles and was over 20 years ago! I`ll be running the half marathon in my new Vegan Runners UK vest, but if I`m going to dispel the myths about vegans being unfit, I`m going to have to put in alot of hard work training in the weeks beforehand! The costs for the festival have gone through the roof (the venue alone cost over £2,500), but I know it`s going to be a huge success! It`s about time the West Midlands had our own vegan festival - if we can just cover our costs, it`s certain to become an annual event! So please sponsor me whatever you can afford. Thankyou."

Not only is this a great way to raise funds, it will also help to alert potential festival-goers to the event! Please do your best to gather as many sponsors as possible. You could ask your friends, family, veggie/vegan group members etc. Whether 20p or £20, every penny will help and will be very gratefully received. Where possible, if sponsors can pay in advance, it`ll save us spending time/money chasing them up later! All cheques should be sent to the address on the sponsor form. Thankyou.
Many thanks to Vegetarian Shoes for kindly donating a pair of trainers for Kevin to run in.
