Walk alongside your community by joining the JIGSAW Jaunt!
Jigsaw Thornbury
JIGSAW Thornbury are hosting a sponsored walk to celebrate the end of their 10th birthday year.
The whole community is invited to walk alongside parents and carers that are members of JIGSAW for either a 5km or 10km loop around Thornbury.
Exercise, spending time outdoors, and connecting with others are all important parts of managing and improving wellbeing.
They are all things that parents who have caring responsibilities for their children with additional needs or disabilities have limited time, yet an increased need for. The event is an opportunity to raise essential funds and awareness for their cause.
The walk will be taking place on Saturday 23rd March from outside JIGSAW’s home in St Mary Centre. A fun personal trainer led warm up will begin at 7:30pm, with the walk starting from 8pm and finishing late.
The theme “Through the decades” is a nod to JIGSAW’s 10th birthday year, where walkers will be encouraged to dress up in clothes from their favourite decade. The walk is accessible to everyone utilising a network of paths around the town via a 5km loop, with the option of continuing the loop again to give a more challenging 10km challenge.
The route has been designed in collaboration with Elite Fitness, who are supporting the event by offering a free week’s gym pass for everyone who signs up. Each person who completes the walk will also receive a certificate and a commemorative 10th birthday JIGSAW keyring.
Sign up now and start collecting your sponsorship at The JIGSAW Jaunt. It’s £5 to register, over 18s only.
Once you have signed up, JIGSAW Thornbury will send you their fundraising pack with more information about how to start collecting sponsorship from friends, family and colleagues who will want to support you with the challenge!
