Opportunity Summary

The final big running event of the year is here! We have an amazing group of runners taking on the 10K and half marathon for Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity and to help keep them going and get them over the line, we’re hosting……..a cheer BUS!!! That’s right, this year we have a stationary open top bus for our Cheer Squad based at the Clyde Place/Carlton Place/Glasgow Bridge (A77) junction.
