Running
There is nothing like the satisfaction and exhilaration of completing a run or marathon for a good cause. People often quote it as the proudest and most emotional moment of their lives.
FSID has places in a whole host of runs, from the basic 5K for all levels of runner, to the ultimate achievement: The London Marathon.
You can obtain a place in any of these runs through FSID as long as you can guarantee raising a minimum amount of sponsorship, varying from anything between £15 and £1,500.
Alternatively, you can acquire your own place on a run and then choose to run it for us, raising what you can for our cause. Either way, any FSID runners will be welcomed aboard the team with encouragement, tips, fundraising advice, resources and most of all, moral support!
