Skating in a Chain, Fancy Dress or Backwards for Sports Relief will be loads of fun - come along and give your SK8 M8s some support.
People opting to skate in Fancy Dress or backwards should be able to command higher sponsorship fees for Sport Relief as there attempt on the mile will be harder!
If you don't think you could manage a mile backwards and can't imagine what fancy dress you'd wear - come along and join the Mile Chain. Our aim is to get as many skaters as possible to form an unbroken chain and skate the Mile for Sports Relief. Gather at the Start point for 1:30pm - Chain leaves at 2pm.
