Join us at our exciting new Charity Canary Cycling &Canary Running event this year on Saturday 27th September! Youcan either cycle or run (or even both!) around the historic RAF Coltishall on a three mile track (Experts) and a two mile track (Families).

See how many laps you can complete for Charity and/or get yourself sponsored for completing 1 lap or multiple laps (whichever you decide – the choice is yours!). This unique event willbe like no other, we have a slight twist; as this is a canary event, we are askingas many participants and spectators as possible to attend the event wearing Norwich City’s grand colours of Green and/or Yellow!

You may even want to dress as a canary yourself!

Proceeds raised are for the charities East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH)and The Big C. So, the more that we can raise for these charities the more we all can make a difference!

There are 2.5 hours for the Cycling event in the morning and 2.5 hours for the Running event in the afternoon, so there is no limit to your cycle or run. You can set yourself a goal to hit by doing as little as 1 lap or as many as many as you can, it does not matter! You can even bring your family along too and they can also take part and run or cycle on a safe off-road environment. All that matters is that you have a fantastic time and we all raise a grand amount for these great causes.

Creating a movement that will Connect, Share and Inspire.

The main theme that runs throughout the day is “Connect : Share : Inspire”. These three words sum up the opportunity that the Inspired Women present to those participating on the day. Firstly to connect with others that have shown an interest, a desire and passion to engage with, and inspire, young females. This day is about creating a network of people working together to developing young people. Secondly, to share their journeys with each other, and a willingness to share with young people. This event is about bringing those people together and sharing that knowledge. And finally a commitment to inspire the next generation by getting involved with the legacy that hopefully will come from the day. This legacy maybe the start of the mentoring programme across Norfolk and Suffolk, but could take any form.

The Inspired Women event will look to raise the awareness, the challenges and opportunities that young females across the region are facing when entering into the world of work. The day will consist of a combination of presentations and interactive sessions. We would look to group those attending into small focus groups made up of a cross section of people. Each focus group would contain 8-12 members, and hosted by a representative from some of the leading employers in the region or business networking groups in Norfolk and Suffolk.

The event will follow a staged approach to the day, which would encourage the sharing of knowledge, ideas, and career opportunities within the region.

The event takes place at Dunston Hall Hotel – Ipswich Road Norwich

Connect-Ed 2014 will be focused on business , and will create a great opportunity for teachers, career advisors and support staff to engage and connect with business leaders based in Norfolk.

Promoting Knowledge and Careers

The main theme that runs throughout the day is “Getting Connect-Ed”, a real chance for those working with young people every day to get an insight into business, careers, and how business employers recruit.

Connect-Ed is about just that, getting connected. Developing young people, and providing opportunities for them to progress into the world of work, needs a network of people working together, informed about how the other operates day-to-day. Connect-Ed is about bringing those people together and sharing that knowledge.

The day will consist of a combination of presentations and interactive sessions. We would look to group those attending into small focus groups made up of teachers, careers staff, training providers and employers. Each focus group would contain 8-12 members with at least a half of the group made up of attending employers and encourage the sharing of knowledge, ideas, and career opportunities within the sector.

The Event takes place at the Brook Hotel Norwich
