Dust off your trainers and warm up your cheering apparatus as Team Osteopath will once again be running in The British 10k London Run.
Osteopaths, friends and family members are all being called on to help support ‘Team osteopath’, not just to raise money for charity but to also make the day super special for the fundraising osteopaths by being there to cheer them round the 10km route that will take them through some of London’s most famous sites.
The race takes place on July 6th at starts at 9am. The route takes the runners from Piccadilly, past St Pauls to Tower Bridge before turning back on itself down Embankment, and finally down Whitehall to the finish line at Westminster.
This year, Team Osteopath will be raising funds for the Foundation for Paediatric Osteopathy (FPO)*, an organisation set up to promote paediatric osteopathy, train paediatric osteopaths, participate in research and provide free treatment to babies, children, pregnant and post-partum mothers.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to join Team Osteopath now, so why not show your support instead and come along to help cheer on ‘Team Osteopath’ and help raise the public awareness of osteopathy!
