Running Readers: The Santa Dash 2012
In just over two weeks, a 13 strong team of Reader Organisation runners will be donning their Santa suits and dashing across the city of Liverpool on Sunday 2nd December to raise money for The Reader Organisation's Apprenticeship for Life Campaign.
We'll be joining 8000 people for the Santa Dash, one of the biggest fun runs in the world, to try and raise a total of £500 towards employing another young care-leaver apprentice and providing them with the means to build a full and independent life. Our two existing apprentices, Eamee and Niall, are among the runners participating this year and they'll be filling you in on their training, and why we're running, over the next couple of weeks.

Now, time to decide whether to run in a red or a blue suit...
