WITH less than two weeks to go before the Colchester Sports Relief Mile, residents are being encouraged to sign up now.
The Colchester Garrison Mile takes place at Abbeyfields on Sunday March 21 and is set to be day of fun for all the family.
On the day families will be able to enjoy both hula hooping demonstration and street dance demonstrations, NHS North East Essex will also be offering free mini health checks and a selection of activities will be provided by the Colchester United Community Sport Trust.
Volunteers are needed for the day to help with tasks such as distributing water and helping with car parking.
Anyone interested in volunteering should contact Justine Naylor, sports development officer, on 01206 282739.
