Dishley Parkrun Defibrilator Appeal

News
We all enjoy Parkruns and we should support our local Parkrun at Dishley. Dishley currently don't have a defibrillator as the unit stored on the wall at the rugby club is out of date and although new pads were ordered months ago they still have not arrived. A unit has already been ordered thanks to funds advanced to Dishley but we do need to replenish this please. The only way to donate is via the link below please, about half way down the page. Please note that they cannot accept "cash on the day". https://www.parkrun.org.uk/dishleyloughborough/aboutus/

Resuming Club nights

News
Assuming the Government restrictions are lifted as planned on 19th July; from next week we are carefully and slowly going to re-start Club nights on both a Tuesday and Thursday night at 7 pm. For the time being we will meet outisde by the swimming pool on the Iveshead School site, rather than in the hut for obvious reasons. For the remainder of July, Club nights will be for current members or established SRC runners only, as we want to take the time to regroup and get organised before inviting new members and re-starting the "Beginners' Nights" that we run on a Thursday. Our intention will be to invite beginners and new members from Thursday 5th August onward as we settle back into the normal Club routines. You've been missed…

Shepshed 7 cancelled

News, Shepshed7
We are sad to announce that we have decided to cancel this year’s Shepshed 7. Whilst this will no doubt be a disappointment to everyone there is simply too much uncertainty about a possible second spike in the winter, changing government guidance, insurance and the use of the school site. We hope to return in 2021. Keep running safely everyone!
