Trust staff and volunteers, as well as local communities, will be encouraged to ‘parkrun for the NHS’ at parkrun events on Saturday 8 July or junior parkrun events on Sunday 9 July.
Encourage your team members to join you this weekend!
‘Parkrun for the NHS’ will not only recognise and celebrate this huge milestone for the NHS, it will also encourage many more people to get involved with their local parkrun or junior parkrun and to make steps towards a more healthy, active lifestyle.
Find your nearest Parkrun location, start times and registration.
Maria McIlgorm, Northern Ireland Chief Nursing Officer, said:
“As the NHS marks its 75th birthday this year, I want to send a message of thanks to all health and social care staff for the tremendous contribution you make every day to patients across Northern Ireland.”
