A massage for ChildLine

19 September 2003

 

Five students from the University of 海角直播 will be helping runners raising funds for ChildLine on Sunday鈥檚 Great North Run by offering a free massage service at the end of the race.

The five students Mark Huitson, Janis Oliver, Eric Leech, Laura Muckle And Gillian Russell are all on the BSc (Hons) Sports Therapy course, which covers the prevention, treatment and management of sports injuries. The students are experienced in a wide-range of hands-on therapies and injury treatments. Andy Cunningham, course leader, said: 鈥淲e received a call from ChildLine asking us if some of our students would be willing to help out runners who have completed the Great North Run for ChildLine. Of course, we were delighted to be asked, and I had no trouble in finding five volunteers.

鈥淭he runners can be assured that our students will do a good job and I鈥檓 sure they will notice the difference the day after the race. We鈥檒l be around the finish line and the ChildLine runners will be able to recognise us by our University of 海角直播 T-Shirts.鈥�
