Proud Sponsors Of The Eastbourne 10k
July 9th, 2024
Brewers were thrilled to sponsor the
Eastbourne 10k that took place last month, raising money for charity Matthew 25
Mission and organised by Eastbourne Runs.
Taking place along Eastbourne Seafront, over 500 runners took part in brilliant sunshine with Bryan Brett and Harriet Bloor completing the course in record times. The Eastbourne 10k was set up by passionate runners Sue and Liz in 2018. Along with the Eastbourne Half Marathon, both events have raised over £20,000 for local charities who make such a difference within the local community.
This year’s chosen charity, Matthew 25
Mission, dedicate themselves to help support vulnerable and marginalised
communities in Eastbourne. £3023 was donated to Matthew 25 Mission by
Eastbourne Runs in 2022, enabling them to purchase 2 industrial sized
freezers. At Eastbourne’s Brodie Hall, the charity provides around 175
meals a day and offer a safe, warm space, for either breakfast, lunch or both.
Each week at least 160 of their guests are helped in more depth by their
key-working and outreach teams, either with housing, benefit advice, addiction
advice and support or anything else they need.
It was fantastic to see an incredible
turnout and we look forward to the Eastbourne Half Marathon next February!
