Bolton Wanderers FC’s players helped to launch the inaugural Bolton Community Run 10K event, which will see thousands of runners starting and finishing at the Toughsheet Community Stadium, taking part in the run for fun, personal challenge or to raise funds for charity. Aaron Morley and Will Forrester gathered to officially launch the 2024 event alongside key run partners. Aaron Morley said: “It’s great for us to be able to come down today to support the community and help them to launch the 10K run. I’m sure it will be a brilliant event and that the fans will get their trainers on to support the many charities which will benefit.” Working in partnership with Bolton Wanderers FC, Bolton Council, Bolton CVS and Burnden Road Runners, Bolton Wanderers in the Community, who are organising the 10K hope the run will encourage the Bolton community to get more active, provide an opportunity for increased community engagement and to support local charities across the town. Bolton Wanderers Chairman, Sharon Brittan said: “We are extremely proud and excited to launch this new key event in Bolton’s calendar. “We want to make sure our Club is a platform for good in our town and community, and so we are delighted to be able to host this event which will provide the opportunity to not only offer people a personal challenge but also to raise funds for a local Bolton charity close to their heart.”
