Vice-Chancellor's Cup

An inter-departmental staff competition for all abilities to encourage staff to keep active in a fun and non-threatening environment.

The [Couch to 5K] programme helped me get back into running. This is a truly fantastic and motivational programme which is great for runners and non-runners of all levels – it’s also a lot of fun and a great way to socialise!
