Moira's Run 2023

29 Oct 2023

Moira's Run 2023 has now closed and you will not be able to sign-up for it. Please check the Organiser's Description for any organiser updates.
This event is in a testing state, and is not open for public sign-ups until the organiser has launched it.

Organiser's Description

TAKE PART IN OUR ANNUAL 5K RUN IN COMMEMORATION OF MOIRA AND HELP US KEEP HER MEMORY ALIVE.

Join us for Moiras' Run at Glasgow's Queen's Park, or virtually at a venue of your choice on Sunday 29th of October 2023.   

The run raises money for The Moira Fund which has helped more than a thousand families in the UK affected by homicide.  Grants from the charity can cover everything from funeral costs to clothes for attending court.

The charity was set up in memory of Moira Jones who was murdered in May 2008. Originally from Staffordshire, Moira had lived in Glasgow for five years at the time of her murder. 

Help us celebrate Moira's life and raise funds to help others with this popular annual event.

If running isn't your thing then walk, skip, ski or samba and you can take part wherever you live in the world. 

There are two options, enter to run/walk at Queens Park, Glasgow, or enter to complete the event virtually at a time and place of your own choice.

Entry fees are non refundable and non transferable.

Numbers will be available for collection on the day from 0800 hours.

All participants will receive a medal. The run is open to anyone. Good luck! 

 

UPDATE - 11th Sept 2023

We have been updated that the Scottish Violence Reduction Unit will not be supporting The Moira Run 2023. 

Our board of trustees are determined that the run will go ahead as normal, and you will be treated to the same high standard of event.

It is anticipated that this may well be the last Moiras Run in Queens Park, and we may have to consider moving to a fully virtual event next year.

Moiras Run has been hugely popular with the people of Glasgow, and supporters who travel from afar.  Our tribute to Moira, has meant to much, to so many - the local Southside Community, those families who have lost a loved one through murder, the hundreds partcipating, our many supporters and to all at The Moira Fund.

And so we appeal to you - please support the 2023 run, and come together to make this the best Moira Run yet!
