Running for Life: Supporting Mental and Physical Wellbeing

What’s on offer? – This free event, led by Dr Nur Kurtoglu-Hooton of Aston University, aims to highlight and investigate the vital role 'running' has in supporting our mental and physical wellbeing.

The event will start with a short talk and discussion on how runners' stories can be motivational and inspiring. There will then be some interactive activities on ‘parkrun’. The final session will feature a round table discussion with a panel of experts, examining how running outdoors can support mental and physical wellbeing.

You’ll have the opportunity to participate in or watch the 'Cannon Hill parkrun' prior to the event if you wish.

Intended audience – Adults interested in running
