Felixstowe Road Runners achieve Clubmark Accreditation

Fantastic news! Our club has just achieved Clubmark Accreditation. Well done to all those who have worked very hard for this. Here's part of the letter from James Cudmore of English Athletics.

I am pleased to inform you that following assessment of your file by the National Clubmark Panel, that took place yesterday, Felixstowe Road Runners have been granted Clubmark Accreditation, valid to 24 November 2014. The feedback from the panel was very positive and from what I've seen in the folder and at the training session I attended, may I congratulate you on the excellent setup you have developed and all the hard work that has gone into both the Clubmark file and in the development of the junior section in recent months.
