The BUPA Great South Run 2007 Needs You!

We need your support in raising much needed funds for Diabetes UK, the UK's largest charity supporting people with diabetes, their families, friends and carers.

On Sunday 28th October 2007, Diabetes UK is entering a team into the Great South Run, a 10-mile road run through the streets of historic Portsmouth.

Diabetes UK still has a number of Great South Run places available. If you have running partners, friends or colleagues interested in taking part please encourage them to take up one of our places to help raise vital funds for our work. The race entry is £30 and we are asking for a minimum of £200 in sponsorship money from each runner.

There are over 2 million people in the UK diagnosed with diabetes, and an estimated further 750,000 who have the condition, but do not know it. Diabetes is a serious condition which can lead to complications such as heart disease, kidney damage, stroke and lower limb amputation. It is also the largest cause of blindness in people of working age

Closing date for all applications is 29 August 2007.

For more information email south.east@diabetes.org.uk or call 01372 720 148

Join our team and help us make a difference to the lives of people with diabetes!
