Opportunity image

Come and be a part of an historic fundraising event!

Ex-Leeds Rhino’s rugby player Kevin Sinfield is completing his 'Ultra 7 in 7 Challenge' in November where he will run 7 ultra-marathons over 7 days aiming to raise £777,777 - inspired by Rob Burrow and his playing number 7.

This is an EPIC challenge and 41% of the money that Kevin raises will come to Leeds Hospitals Charity as part of our MND Appeal to build a state-of-the art MND centre in Leeds.

How you can support this event!

We are looking for a team of volunteers to join us at Headingley Stadium on Friday 18th November at 10.30am to cheer Kevin as he makes his way through the city! We're hoping to create a big, loud, purple sea of Leeds Hospitals Charity supporters!

Kevin's challenge sees him running from Edinburgh to Manchester via Melrose, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, York, Leeds, and Bradford. So by the time Kevin gets to Leeds he's going to need SO much support to get him through the final stages of his incredible challenge.

Kevin raised over £2million in his 101 Miles Challenge last year and the money he is raising is making life-changing differences to people who are diagnosed with MND in the UK.

Come and be a part of this historic fundraising event! - we'll see you there!
