THE Stroke Association is encouraging people to shape up after summer and sign up to a 5k, 10k or 15k ‘Resolution run’ on October 5 at Victoria Park.

The event last year raised more than £7,000 to fund vital research and support.

Registration begins at 9am with a 10.45am pre-run warm up and 11am start. Entry is £12.50 with a t-shirt or £15.00 with a technical running vest.
