SI Bournemouth once again staffed hydration station number 1 at the 10 km and half marathon run on Sunday October 8th 2023 to raise money for Cementing Futures, our charity that promotes education, hope and dignity to girls living in the slums in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Twenty members and friends turned up to hand out thousands of bottles of water to the runners, who really needed it as it was gloriously sunny and unseasonably warm. They were very polite, the vast majority thanking us heartily for the drink despite their exertions! It was a very productive and satisfying day on the beautiful Bournemouth seafront.
