junior parkrun was smaller on numbers but still as big on effort this week! Mother’s Day and a cold, grey, wet morning meant there were less juniors taking part today, but whether it’s 1 child or 100, they still need the same number of volunteers. So Maurice, Emily, Karen and Nigel wrapped up warm in waterproofs and carried out lots of different roles: course check, event set-up, volunteer coordinator, warm-up, marshals, timekeeper and photographer! Multi tasking at its best! 28 children took part and impressively 2 new juniors joined in this week, despite the weather!

After packing everything away, our work here was done so the team gathered in the cafe for a lovely catch up, coffee and yummy cake courtesy of one of the other volunteers. Its always a lovely morning at junior parkrun so we were glad we could make a difference.
