We are a group of ladies with ages ranging from early 20s to 50s. We usually run around the school holidays as we have a few mums but can run in the holidays as well if enough people are available.
We charge per half term which works out at £5.50 a week when you commit to the whole half term.
Please contact us if you would like to come so we can let you know which room we will be in. less
