UK's Biggest Kids Sport Event EVER!
***Please Share Far & Wide***
(Sky News came in to grab reactions for the Scotland game as this took place in Tory Glen but I feel this is also newsworthy)
Huge congratulations to @ASGstmungos & all the kids in his Active Schools area on their ridiculous achievement yesterday.
In a country where health & well-being are preached so strongly, you'd think this would be a hugely newsworthy event:
> Biggest UK Sports Event for U16s EVER
> 27 Secondary Schools Attended
> 280 Participants
> 141 Hyrox Style Teams
> An Additional Needs School took part in a manner appropriate to their needs which shows the full inclusivity of the event
Richard himself worked multiple 18hr days to ensure the place was set up & god knows how many "Out of Office" hours in preparation.
People that go above & beyond to ensure that kids have an option to participate in events is exceptional and truly deserves recognition.
He is not alone, here are some of the other people that gave up their own time to provide this historic event to kids completely FREE OF CHARGE:
Ceejaycookspreps:
A Meal Prep company which provided meals for all participants completely FREE OF CHARGE 👏
Soul Suites Glasgow:

Our new batch of @PEPASSGlasgow MAs have been making waves across the city. It's fantastic to see them settle into their new roles and inspire the children and young people they've been working with. We're excited to be on this journey with them 🥳🤩 @CDavren
