Local newspapers are often keen to feature people from the local area who<br />

take on running events. News articles can not only help raise awareness of<br />

<strong>CLIC</strong> <strong>Sargent</strong> and our services, but could also give your fundraising a push too!<br />

A press release which you can tailor and send to your local newspaper to shout about your<br />

ef<strong>for</strong>ts can be found by visiting www.clicsargent.org.uk/running<br />

We also recommend that you accompany the press release with a digital photo of yourself in<br />

your running gear.<br />
