Loads of local people have already signed up, but there’s still time to bag your place! Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of something amazing – enter the Mile at www.sportrelief.com.

Setting off from the playing fields on Linchfield Road, Deeping St James the Deepings 6 Mile will pass through Frognall and is set to be an incredible event. All the money raised by the public will help people living unimaginably tough lives right here on our doorstep, across the rest of the UK and in some of the world’s poorest countries.

Carole Langton, Deepings Rugby Club Social Secretary, who has organasied the event along with help from the Deepings Rotary Club and the DSJ Scouts said: “The Deepings Mile is set to be an amazing event. It’s fantastic that so many local people are gathering together to show their support for Sport Relief 2012. But we want this to be the best Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile yet – so raise your game, enter the Deepings Mile today and join the rest of the nation to raise plenty of cash for an incredible cause!”

We will have a great warm up session, followed by food and refreshments and children’s entertainment including a bouncy castle and climbing wall!

Participants can choose their own distance, from 1, 3 or 6 miles, and can complete it in any way they fancy. From teeny tots with their mums and dads, to super sprinters up against the clock, there’s something for everyone on the big day.

Sport Relief has a unique history of dedicated people doing extraordinary things to go the extra mile. Last September, David Walliams started Sport Relief off with an epic splash when he completed the BT Sport Relief Challenge: Walliams vs The Thames. Despite battling a nasty bacterial bug and bitingly cold water, David swam a staggering 140 miles, and has so far raised over £1million for Sport Relief. And there’ll be even more amazing celebrity challenges to get the whole nation geared up for the Sport Relief Weekend on Friday 23rd to Sunday 25th March 2012.
