The Manchester Mile
Manchester really is the place to be for the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile! Join us in raising money to help others while you enjoy an incredible day out with your family and friends. We’re working hard to make sure you have day to remember and feel proud of, with loads of sporty activities including rugby, tennis, netball, cycling and football (phew!) that you can catch live demonstrations of, or try your hand at. On top of all that there’ll be entertainment laid on throughout the day including local bands and performers. Let’s hope the band on stilts make it in one piece! So register now and we look forward to greeting you on Sunday 16th March.

And if that isn’t enough to keep you occupied, why not check out some of the local bands and entertainers, while keeping your eyes peeled for celebs.
