Sandbach Striders

Sandbach 10k sponsored by Butcher & Barlow

The finish line

On a beautiful sunny September Sunday, 136 runners and their families descended on Sandbach for the Sandbach 10k Sponsored by Butcher & Barlow solicitors.


The cake stall

This is the 11thyear that this event has been held and each year it gets better and better. Along side the main event there was a children’s fun run, bouncy castle, face painting, BBQ, cake stall, a unicorn, live music, sports massage from Sandbach Physiotherapy, and a pop up shop from Rosebank Sports. All the proceeds from the day are donated to the club’s chosen charity for the year, Central Cheshire BuddiesScheme, which supports children and young people with disabilities to access a range of activities which they would not normally have the opportunity to be involved with.
