Local College raises money for Sport Relief


Staff and students at South Gloucestershire and Stroud College (formerly Filton College) took part in the Sport Relief Mile on Sunday to raise money for this national campaign.

Starting at the Millennium Square, the twelve students and six staff members that took part had a wonderful time. Some managed to cross the line in seven minutes whilst others strolled in after a leisurely thirteen. All from the level 2 IT department at the College, the group collectively raised over £300 to go towards this worthy cause.

A total of 17 cities across the country held a flagship run with Bristol having a record turnout of over 4,300 people.

Kath Wilkinson, Tutor, comments: “It was a great experience, the students all supported each other and enjoyed getting involved, most of all we had fun and our legs aren t too sore today! ”
