Moors set sights on raising £250,000 for foundation
Solihull Moors have set their sights on raising £250,000 for their foundation as the Moors 4 's makes a spectacular return in 2021.
Following the success of last year 's flagship event, which saw participants raise £30,000 for NHS Charities Together and The Village of Forgiveness, Moors have decided to go again this summer.
But this time, the Moors plan to go the extra mile as they aim to raise a quarter of a million pounds for its charity, the Solihull Moors Foundation.
The Moors 4 's is an endurance event, which will take place in the summer, starting at 6pm on Friday 25 June and finishing on Sunday 27 June.
Participants can opt to take part in either the 24-hour or 48-hour challenge of exercising for four miles every four hours.
Anyone can get involved with the challenge, not just professional athletes.
The Solihull Moors Foundation works with almost 2,500 people across 10 projects, delivering over 15,000 hours of support every year to those in need.
Becci Fox, chief executive of the Solihull Moors Foundation, believes the Moors 4 's will unite people and bring about change in the community.
“It 's a brilliant event. The Moors 4 's will help to create a sense of belonging and encourage people to make positive changes, ” she said.
“The foundation is about going beyond people 's basic needs, ensuring fulfilment and helping people take control.
“It 's centred on creating positive experiences, bringing happiness to people and embracing them as a member of the Moors family. ”
The charity goes beyond football and the foundation offers help to a number of different causes.
Their work ranges from providing social inclusion sessions and holiday camps to helping those living with a disability or suffering from mental health.
In raising money for the foundation, the Moors 4 's will greatly contribute to allowing those efforts to expand and help the club reach a wider audience.
Fundraising can be carried out through the event 's JustGiving page which can be found at: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/Moors4s
