Another Epic morning at Parkrun.
This week we chose Widnes as it was Bianca's Son Cole first ever parkrun. 9 years of age and was amazing. Never stopped and did himself and his family very proud.
Dont forget we cater for everyone. Walking, Jogging running. We have a great time and check in and see how everyone is doing.
We meet on Wednesdays 10.30am and 7.00pm. Fridays 7.00pm and we pick a parkrun for most Saturdays. Come and see you even if its just for a chat and get to know us.

WHAT A WEEKEND FOR EPiC HOPE UK! 🏉🏃🏽🎂

Our EPiC MEN had an incredible time at Wigan St Patricks A.R.L.F.C, joining Fat Monkey, Andy’s Man Club and so many brilliant organisations coming together, raising money and showing what real community looks like.

Our EPiC Runners were out there smashing their goals too! One of our amazing Run Leaders, Rob, completed the Riverside Half Marathon, while another took on the 10K, and we couldn’t be prouder of them both! 🏃🏽🏃🏽

We’ve celebrated volunteer birthdays, 🎂 cheered one another on and shared another weekend filled with friendship, achievement and hope.

Physical activity can make such a difference to our mental health. 🧠 It gives us connection, purpose, a reason to get out of the house and people beside us when life feels heavy.

At EPiC HOPE, we will do anything and everything we can to help people, not just IN crisis, but before they reach crisis too.
This weekend was a beautiful reminder that su***de prevention🎗️happens in communities, while running, playing sport, celebrating birthdays, raising money and simply being there for one another.

What an incredible community we have! 💜

Running goals. 🏃🏿‍♀️ Mental health goals. 🧠 We’re achieving them together!

What a brilliant weekend for EPiC Runners! Our runners were out last night, followed by Bolton parkrun this morning, and Hannah was the first female finisher! We’re incredibly proud of her and every single person who got out there and gave it their best.

Being part of EPiC Runners is about so much more than running. It’s about confidence, friendship, better mental health and discovering what you’re capable of, with people beside you who genuinely want you to succeed.

Why not pop down and give one of our friendly groups a try? All abilities are welcome, and nobody is ever left behind.

📅 Wednesdays at 10.30am and 7pm
📅 Fridays at 7pm

Come as you are. We’ll take the next step together. 😊

An huge Happy Birthday today to Dean one of runners too. Hope it’s EPIC! 🥳🎂

WOW. What an Epic Eclipse run that was. Eclipse wasnt as good as we hoped for but everyone of the Runners smashed it.
Very proud of them all. I Offered them the chance to turn round at the bridge and do 5k but they all wanted to push on and did a minimum of just short of 7km. The progression they are all making and the enjoyment I see from them all is inspiring.
Can't wait for the Wigan 10k in a few weeks raising vital funds for EPiC HOPE UK
