Mauds Sparkle Dash 5k supporting Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice is on Sunday 6th August 2017 at Giant’s Park, Belfast.
This isn’t a timed event. It’s about having fun while raising funds for a very worthwhile cause. You can run, walk, jog or even dance your way round the course! The Maud’s Sparkle Dash 5k will start at 11:30am. Gates will be open to the public from 10:00am and there’s ample car parking on site. Entry fee per running participant is £30, with children under 5 going free. The charity is also offering a Special Price Family Package at £70 which includes 2 adults and up to 3 children.
The event is sponsored by Mauds Ice Creams – Northern Ireland’s leading ice-cream manufacturer. They are inviting runners and walkers from all over Northern Ireland to participate in the 5k challenge. The runners and spectators will be generously doused in a rainbow of sparkling glittered powders. A fun and family friendly event!
Event organiser, Joanna Pawson at NI Children’s Hospice commented.
“This event promises to be a great day out for the whole family. As part of the event we are expecting surprise visits from some well-known super heroes as well as local sporting heroes like Adam Keefe, Head Coach of the Belfast Giants.”
“Everyone taking part will be a winner, with free medals, t-shirt and goodie bags for all. In addition there will be a great food village on-site, plus lots of entertainment for all ages. There’s even a chance to win a years supply of Mauds Ice cream for some lucky person who raises more than £50 in sponsorship.”
We would encourage anyone who can, to take part in Mauds Sparkle Dash 5k. A great fundraiser to help support local children who are living with life-limiting or terminal illnesses at Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice.
