Last year, we bought a much-needed bus for Highpark Primary School & LCR to allow those with additional needs the freedom to take part in school trips, leisure activities and getting out into the world. This year, we'll be idenfitifying another capital project to support those in need, and will once again donate 1,000 tickets over the course of our run to those who might not normally be able to attend events like ours.
